The cottage






Our house sits directly across from a classic Irish cottage. Dave the landlord's mother was born in this house. It has 3 rooms downstairs and one small room upstairs. Dave assured me that the rickety old stairs were completely safe. I, being the brave soul that I am, stayed downstairs while the kids went up to check out the room. That is some quality mothering right there!!!


The cottage has a barn next to it where we store our extra stuff. Dunkin the donkey and Dudlee the pony stay there in the winter. Dave plans on fixing up the place and retiring there. I told him he should fix it up and rent it to American tourists!
