A Few Pictures from The Yeats Trail, June 2006

Outside a traditional Irish pub ... ... but it was shut!

Doonbeg and Cormac wait patiently outside a horse-friendly pub whilst we have a lunchtime drink.  We carried all our needs with for the trail with us in two pairs of saddle bags per horse (as you can see here), and with raincoats tied in front - the weather was so glorious that they stayed there for the whole trip.  Although the Yeats Trail is only four nights away, we managed to carry all our belongs even on the much longer Sligo Trail and the Donegal Trails, which had ridden some years ago, when the weather was not nearly so kind.
