I would be on a small 10 acre farm just outside of Bray Ireland, on the coast, supplying the new resort town that is growing in 1900, with vegetables and eggs and baked goods, with a good team of Irish draft horses to bring to town 3 days a week, and close enough to the train station so I could go to Dublin once a month for entertainment. Ahhh, thanks so much for the daydream, makes me want to write a short story.
I’m going to have to look up Bray Ireland. Ireland is beautiful and I’d love to visit one day.
I am sure it has gotten very built up, as all coastal have. I visited in 1978 or 79 (not sure and too lazy to look it up). Stayed at a true Bed and Breakfast, hiked all around the area by taking buses to the city limits, stayed in hostels, it was all so affordable and lovely, wonderful people, open and chatty. I had no car, took trains and buses and hiked, everything was in reach, civilized and rustic at the same time.The train goes right there, from Dublin, its has a beach on the Irish Sea, a lovey quay that goes along the whole edge of town. Hiking just around there, you can hike from hostel to hostel, at least then. Stone walls and hedges on the small farms to keep the sheep, they would all be in the road anyway.
Wow sounds like an old fashioned post card. That had to be a great experience. I wish we had a better rail system in the states like in Europe and UK. I’m on the south east, in the 70s my family went to Florida several times by train until my grandfather figured out he could by a two seat large van, added two bench seats, carpet and a bed in the back. Us kids rode in the back playing games. Of course before seatbelts were actually used. The passenger trains have come a long way but nothing like other countries. It’s crazy the US trains aren’t streamlined and stop at every station from Miami to NY, etc.
Well, now I kinda just want to live close enough to hang out with you🐸
