Hiking and potatoes

On our final weekend in Northern Ireland we got to go stay at Al and Helen's cottage down in the Mourne mountains. Pete and the boys came down to hang out with us on Saturday and we all went for a little walk in the woods.

 

Before our hike we struck up a conversation with the potato farmers that were working on the farm neighboring the cottage. They told us to go grab some bags and come back to take some freshly dug potatoes. Well, we were on the way for our walk so we told them we'd stop over when we got back.

When we returned to the cottage we found a not-so-subtle hint saying help yourself to as many as you want...

 The farmers had dropped an entire crate right in front of the cottage's door!
