A Spring Picnic

Today Olivia asked if we could pack a picnic and go to our land. So she packed us up a lovely lunch. We walked over there and enjoyed our 82 acres with a picnic by the slough. The water isn't turned on yet but there was still some left over water that the dogs thoroughly enjoyed playing in.

We at a very nice lunch followed by several chapters of reading in our read a loud. (Percy Jackson #5). While they played Robin Hood, Percy Jackson, Horatio Hornblower, World War II commando raids and the Horse Whisper (that was Olivia) I sat and leisurely enjoyed my "light read" of The History of the Peloponnesian Wars by Thucydides.

Truly, can life get any better? Simplicity in life pays huge dividends.
