Castlebar Christmas Eve Ride

I had to get a few photos of this tire shop located next to a brook. As long as I have been here in Ireland, I have wondered if our zoning rules back in the States would allow something like this  to be built in such a bucolic setting
Looking down to it from the relatively steep hill that drops down to it.

Dead tires appeared on one side of the building
The gate here leads to a graveyard (closed to the public) that sits on the other side
Before I made it around to the back of the business above,  a friendly horse joined me
As did a rainbow
From slopping around in the field, my shoes were a muddy mess.
Once back in town,  the Castlebar Concert and Marching Band was hard at work
