The Garden_DSC_12033

John's mum's garden behind the farm house. Jayne gave me a tour of the farm house tonight. It's really lovely. Bright, large rooms. Thick stone walls that keep it cool for a long way though summer. And huge amounts of living space. Nicely furnished and full of family history. A family bible dating from 1860 with family history from 1840 to about 1870(?) sits on an old oak chest beside the rear staircase.

Beautiful! I wish one of our ancestors left a bible with family history in it, it might tell us where we came from in Ireland.

You can just see the corner of one of the lovely stone troughs that we liked very much.
