We just finished a pretty eventful and fun week back from vacation, it’s hard to believe we just got back from vacation a bit over a week ago! It’s also hard to believe how tall the false sunflowers in front of our house grew while we were away!
On Monday John headed to Michigan to do some house sorting out activities for the following weekend.
On Wednesday, Liam and Bronwyn took the train to Michigan in time for a sunset swim.
On Thursday, I had a morning Dr appt then met Sarah for lunch (a three-peat, what a treat!) then took the afternoon train to Michigan. John picked me up at the station and we went back and filled the afternoon with snacks, games and general hanging out. Liam and bronwyn’s friend (also named John) arrived on the next train. We had a yummy dinner with pasta and fresh peas, then went to the lake for a sunset swim.
Friday John and I visited a local lavender farm, called Lavender Bliss. It was so nice, super peaceful and smelled wonderful. It’s a family business that started during Covid – they had 5 acres and wanted something to do. Very productive Covid project! Highly recommend a visit.
After dinner we went for a sunset swim again, but during and after this one fireworks started up along the beach. Some were really impressive! The beach was really crowded, not our usual quiet stretch of lake at all! It was fun though.
On sunday we dropped Liam, Bronwyn and John back at the train station and we went to see a zombie movie. It was really hot here throughout the weekend and we just felt like sitting in a cool, dark space for a while! We both really enjoyed 28 years later (the zombie movie). It rained Sunday afternoon and cooled off a lot.
So much to comment on! I’m particularly impressed by the lavender farm, drawing, beach runs and all round summery vibes!
