Summer Vacation 2013

Hammocking

We just got back from two weeks in the country.  Sarah spent a week at pony camp at Southlands, and then a week at arts camp at the Mill Street Loft, which takes place in a church in Red Hook.

Fetching

Daisy had a great vacation.  She had her first swims in the pond, worked on her fetching, and had a session with a trainer, who pronounced her smart, but sassy.

No Bite!!!

We are trying to teach her not to bite …

Oy

… and also to be more respectful of old media.

Otherwise, we did lots of cooking.  Jen made 42 jars of jam and I made bread and butter pickles (both to be entered in the Dutchess County Fair).  Jen also made a peach-blackberry buckle.

I did a fair amount of mowing.

Pileated Woodpecker

Today we saw our friend the Pileated Woodpecker, who laughed at us for going back to New York.
