My front porch … aka Quay Street in Galway Ireland. The main drag in Galway is a series of pedestrianized streets that start with Quay (pronounced Key) Street, and then High Street, and then Shop Street. During the day the streets are busy with shoppers, street performers, and the like. Come the evening or, as I’m in Ireland, the early afternoon, the many pubs are filled with young and old enjoying cold, pints of Guinness. After the pubs close, the socializing (read partying) moves to the streets and continues till the early morning.
