The local pub, Sean Og’s, is the epicenter of the local nightlife and also where a lot of questions that Cal has, can be answered, but on the contrary, it raises more questions. His neighbors are friendly and helpful, the landscape around him is soothing and the weather currently is pleasant too. He sets about repairing the house he’s purchased, which has been lying unoccupied for decades. Life in Ireland is slow and laid-back, especially away from the urban centers, and Cal is happy with the privacy and solitude he gets. His daughter, Alyssa, has grown up and his wife Donna is separated from him, so there’s nothing holding him back from moving to another country, for good.
