Well it's been a while since I got around to here. I didn't really want to post until I had a few photos to prop up and smile at, but no matter.
Where am I? In a tiny house filled village called Beenbawn outside the main tourist town of Dingle.
What am I doing? Assimilating myself into a group of 12 people(5 coworkers, 7....intellectually challenged villagers) who are attempting to establish an organic farm, while involving and helping the villagers.
Am I enjoying it? I don't know or understand quite yet.
Unfortunately this little place isn't running as smoothly as I may make it out to be, if I did at all. Many problems have arose (one of the villagers moved(was sent) in a month ago, because he beat up all the others at his last village. Causing one of our few long-term workers to leave already. It's complicated.) and also seeing how unsmooth operations are here and that all the elders are all very inflexible cranky women(sorry, they can be sweet and knowledgable at times though) makes it quite rough.
I am not sure if I want to talk about it
moo
the cows of Dingle much more. I don't have much time to go into Dingle anywho to meet the friendly locals, and even if I did, this is the 2nd most expensive place in the country, and a pint of bad beer(depends on your opinion of Guiness) is a 4 Euros minimum, and that's only the beginning.
We'll see.

oh Davey this will be something to remember, or forget, once it's all over. i hope you find some generous Irish soon to make this all worth while and drinks all round on the house, esp. pint size. After you come back do watch the King of Hearts and One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest back to back with Grego...........I'm in sunny Boulder Co, well over cast today, but will go see and listen to Joan Baez sing some Irish songs tonighrt and I'll pray dampness doesn't sepp under your skin..love Debs
