Florida farm

We went to the Florida farm that I was telling you about. It was so nice and relaxing.This was such a great mother's day gift. Family time together We made it to the farm around 11:30. we would have been there a little earlier but we hit a few yard sales along the way.We had a pic-nick lunch there. Nothing that healthy good reason to buy all the fruit. Actually they only had peaches, onions, and crab apples ready. they said the season has been crazy and things are late. I wanted the blueberries and blackberries so We will go back up first of June.Yippee!!! This is their house. Doesn't my car look lovely by it???
Leia petted a few friendly cows.

They had gorgeous horses.We got to pet them several times. They loved their necks and nose scratched. I could have taken these two home with me. They we such sweet babies
Leia burned some rubber on this trike. It flied on the dirt road. Definitely will have to get one of these on our farm,That or the bigger version depending on when we get one. I hope in the next few years. I can't wait. This is my dream.
Leia helping spread the love of dandelions.
This is the Hen house. They sell fresh eggs. I wanted to buy some but didn't quite know how they would handle the hour drive. I will have to bring a cooler next time.
Here's the ladies. The rooster was crowing about his flock to us.
Again these beauties. In the fall these pull an Amish buggy around and give tours of the farm. They just got the wagon last October when I was there .
It was so peaceful watching them fish and letting the breeze cool us off. I just needed a Lemonade and maybe a good book to make it like a dream. It was 100 % perfect the way it was . It was so relaxing.
All I can say is pure peace.
Chris showed Leia worms and she was brave enough to hold them.

Bored of fishing.

We went back to petting the horses and Chris caught this nice Bass. He was so excited. He was like a kid in the candy store.



They even had bunnies. They got this one out so Leia could play with her.Her name was Lilly. She wasn't scared of us and just let us love on her.
This is a beautiful old Oak tree. It just is so Southern looking with the moss hanging down and everything. We fished under it for 15 seconds and decided the bugs liked it too and found us for dinner.
We had an absolutely fabulous time. I can't wait to go back.Tomorrow we are going to a Cat Preserve. We have gone to the wolf preserve and loved it so we are going to go to this one. It has 46 different species.I think the brochure said they had tigers,black panthers,cougars,etc. sounds right up our ally. I'll post on it tomorrow.It has been the best weekend ever.
