  • Henry, Flora and Winnie are Irish Cob horses. Sandra and Kay are Irish regular humans (mongrels, probably). Together they trek the Irish countryside spreading friendly cheer and horse-poo to all..

    These wonderful people exude such serenity and old world charm. Watching their videos is like a soothing balm for my emotions that were rug burned from viewing the day's news events.

      Joseph that's why I don't watch the news anymore. Anything important will come up on social media.

    Hi from New Zealand. I heard from one of the locals that theres a cave nearby that leads to Ireland so I might come visit some day.

    It was very nice to hear that there in Ireland you have hills that go both up and down. Here in Canada all the hills only go up and as I age I find them rather tiring.Cheers.

But our roads are too busy... 😞 You ladies are hilarious with the Bear Grylls hoof pick and all 😂 lovely hearing the clip clop of 12 hooves ( mine haven't been shod in years so just patter along) great video, beautiful Ireland ☘

    Just found your channel today and am absolutely loving your beautiful take on the farmstead lifestyle. Almost makes me regret being a city-dweller, but then again I have many years ahead of me hopefully, plenty of time to switch up and live amongst nature.
    I must of watched your entire backlog by now, or at least getting close :)

    • @WayOutWestx2

    Kay is a real ray of sunshine, is she not?! :-) Tell her i think she is fantastic, will you?
    60kilometers?? All the riding i ever get is inside a big barn with sawdust for a floor...
    Well... maybe once i get the hang of things i get to go outside as well. ^^
    Thanks again, guys!

    Also have a yearly that will be added to the string when he is old enough

      What a great team you all were. (It's funny - now that all the blasphemy, nudity and swearing are cut out, you come across as quite nice people really) I can see we're going to need a reunion sometime - 'the famous five ride again..' What do you think?

    @TheJohn8765 7 років тому +12

    I've known people that built their own pack saddles for not much money and had *very* good results. I'm sure Tim could fabricate something fairly easily and that would give you the chance to customize it to your needs. You know, in Tim's "free time", lol ;)

      Haven't been able to get behind tea as y'all have. Coffee, black, is where it's at for us Americans. Is coffee popular in Ireland? How do you drink tea? Maybe I've been doing it wrong

    • @WayOutWestx2
      @WayOutWestx2  7 років тому +1

      Mint tea (boiling water over leaves) is delicious.
      (We drink lots of coffee here too, but there are hundreds of sorts of teas too, so there's one for any occasion!)

    having just walked trails and tracks of Beara, they were often pretty darn mucky. Noticed the North Carolina T-shirt, unexpected

    • @WayOutWestx2
      @WayOutWestx2  7 років тому

      Did you have a good time? Or was it too mucky?

    • @marthaanderson2656
      @marthaanderson2656 7 років тому +1

      no I have a great time!!. Some long days, Castletown to Allihes was in drizzle the whole way over the mountains and broke just as coming down to Allihes; and the angles sang. Horrible footing from Allihes to Eyeries after the Old Copper Road ended. The kind that take the joy out of cross country walking. Saddest bit is the knit shop in Bonane could not take a credit card and I did not have enough cash on hand. Too late into Glengarrif to shop. Did find a lovely lap robe at airport so that was my wool purchase done. Lovely country, wonderful people, want to rent a house on Dersey and spend a week

    • @WayOutWestx2
      @WayOutWestx2  7 років тому

      Glad the weather didn't spoil things for you. At least here the weather changes often, so you just have to wait long enough and the sun will surely come out.
      Let us know if you do come back for longer..
