Chapter 19

The rain began to let up a bit as I dug out a towel from our suitcases in the back seat. I handed it to Max to dry off. Instead, he used it to dry my arms and face before using it on himself.

As we looked out through the windshield, the rain eased up even more.

“That was fast.” Max laughed. “Maybe it won’t make the ground much more muddy.”

Once the rain eased to a drizzle we climbed back out to look at the damage. Unfortunately the heavy rain had been enough to create quite a bit more mud.

“Max, this doesn’t look good.”

He sighed and nodded. “I have to agree. I guess we have no choice but to walk and hope the rain is going to take a break for a while.”

I frowned and looked up at the sky. The moment that I did I grabbed Max’s hand.

“Look, Max!” Stretched across the sky was a clear bright rainbow. “I’ve seen a lot of rainbows in my life, but this one is so vivid.”

“It’s great, but look, Sammy, there’s someone coming.” He waved his hands through the air. “Hey! Over here! Over here!”

The truck had no problem driving over the soft ground as it approached us. It stopped a few feet away from the car and two men got out.

“Are you stuck?” The older man adjusted his hat.

“Yes.” Max shook his head. “And we don’t have any signal on our phones. Is there any chance we can use yours?”

“Sorry, don’t have any cell phones.” The older man chuckled. “No point out here.”

“Maybe you could give us a ride?” I dug into my purse. “I have some cash.”

“No need, lass, we’ll get you out of here.” He winked at me.

I wasn’t sure what to think of his statement until the younger man walked over with a towline to hook to the car. He smiled at me. “You’re not the first tourists to get stuck out here, don’t worry.”

Although I was very grateful for their help, I was a little disappointed that we weren’t the first to discover the mystical path and the waterfall.

“Thank you so much.”

“Yes, thanks.” Max nodded.

As they maneuvered the car out of the mud, Max and the two men exchanged a little conversation about different areas along the Ring of Kerry to visit.

Once the car was free, Max walked back over to me. “All ready to go, when you are.”

“Did you give them something for their trouble?”

“No, they didn’t want any money.”

We both waved to the men as the truck drove away.

“Kindness must be a way of life around here. I’m glad we’re having the chance to experience it.”

“Me too.” Max opened the door for me and held his hand out for the keys.

“Oh, I can still drive.” I started to walk around to the driver’s side.

“Hm, scaring sheep or getting the car stuck in the mud again. Nope, I’m driving.” He plucked the keys out of my hand and jumped into the driver’s seat before I could catch him.
