Our simple farmlife


After three busy days in Chicago we drove P&V (laden with champagne) down to the farm.

It had been 10 years since their last visit and we were looking forward to showing them the changes we had made and enjoying a bit of simple farm life.

But first we had to sample the champagne and caviar they had brought for afternoon tea.





P put together a tasting plate 


The champagne and vodka was poured


And within an hour of their arrival we were tucking into it

My usual restraint
We had a Labor day party on Monday afternoon to introduce P&V to our friends here and to enjoy an afternoon of boules, food and wine




This link to Steve Adams Studio will take you to some more Labor Day photos taken by our friend S (the real photographer).

Don't think we just sat around on land drinking champagne.

V and I did yoga and walked the dam,
got to waterski at Lake Sarah with S&N (his first time in 25 years - luckily he didn't break anything), and we also had a lazy afternoon cruising on Lake Carlyle.






We did a bit of clay bird shooting





Followed by more champagne - just because.




Thanks for visiting P&V- it was a week of sparkling memories.
