Azaleas and Butterflies

Family

Now that Dogwood Winter with temperatures dipping down to freezing two nights in a row, is past, it looks like we’ll have milder temperatures for a while. We decided to be brave enough to take the houseplants out to the deck. Yes, we’ll need to bring them in at some point in the coming weeks. There’s always a cold snap in May but for now it’s beautiful Spring weather. Our volunteer azaleas down by the creek are in full bloom and are being visited by blue swallowtail butterflies. The dogwoods are in full glory. Violets and Trillium are blooming. And it’s a glorious day to take some time to just sit and soak up some soul soothing sunshine!

OUR VERY

LATEST

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
