Brosnan's Name...


Since we were kids, the Lane family has been vacationing at Brosnan Forest in Dorchester, SC - 45 minutes west of Charleston. Norfolk Southern owns the Forrest and allows its employees to rent the log cabins during the summer months. Brosnan's Grandpa Lane is an employee of the railroad and we are fortunate that he includes us in his yearly trips! We fill our time at the forest with fishing, golf, horse shoes, swings, driving range, swimming, tennis, skeet shooting, shuffleboard, basketball, badminton, biking, hayrides..... We borrowed the name from our favorite place to name our favorite little guy!


The name Brosnan is also an Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Brosnacháin, or ‘descendant of Brosnachán’, a personal name derived from Brosna, name of a town and river in County Kerry.

See below for some pictures of the forest...
