We celebrated Father's Day in the traditional way--a game of minigolf with lunch and ice cream. Adria won even though we have a lot more experience on the course! I had a hole-in-one on the water hole, and Adria got a hole-in-one on the only hole that matters: the 19th, which gave her a card for a free game! We actually used one of those cards from a few years ago to play today. I think it was Mark's...
With such beautiful weather, we decided to take Adria to Hill-Stead to walk around the garden and enjoy the views.
While sitting in the summerhouse, Mark said he heard a sheep. We thought he was joking until we heard a distinct "Baaaa". In the meadow where the metal sheep cutouts are placed, we saw some real live sheep. The area has a temporary fence and the sheep will spend the summer grazing there.
Then we walked around to the front of the house and relaxed under the portico. We watched a hawk in a nearby oak, but when we approached to take photos, it flew higher into the tree.
The past few days have been very pleasant with low humidity and warm temperatures. We've been eating dinner on the deck and often need a sweater by the time we're finished!
Hopefully I have only two more days of work!!! I'm looking forward to spending some time with Adria before she returns home.
