Birthday Lake Weekend

Before all of the Covid-19 started, our name was on the lake house calendar. We decided to still go. Since I have been working from home, I left Thursday afternoon. I had cooked my brother dinner and baked him a loaf of bread. I also stopped by my parent's house to give them their loaf of bread and I got a delicious strawberry cake for my birthday. I my have eaten almost the whole thing by myself. Don't judge. It was breakfast, lunch and dinner for a few days. 

Indy is not use to me sitting in a recliner. She did not like the fact that she could not sit beside me. After lots of pacing she decide there was room enough fro both of us.

I worked some Friday morning. I had three 504 conferences via Zoom and a staff meeting and then went for a walk. It's one hill after another so no running. this is the view I had from the top of one of the hills I climbed.
                                        
Cody arrived Friday evening. We grilled some sausages and just hung out on the patio. He also brought me flowers that were deliver after I left. The dogs love me!
Saturday was beautiful! I sunbathed and read the book The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah. It was so good. I could hardly put it down. Cody caught up on his sleep. This dog loves to sunbathe too. 
 We took a late afternoon boat ride. They absolutely love boat rides. Their whole demeanor changes when they get on the boat. If a dog could looked relaxed that is them.
 Baby ducklings. The goose was protecting them.
 Can you say spoiled. Hatfield had gone inside to lay on the couch, but that was too far away from her humans. We pulled up a chair and covered her up. She slayed there the whole time we talked and listened to music.
 Cody left Sunday morning and I decided to stay until Monday. I wanted to finish my book and there were no distractions at the lake house. We decide Indy needed some sunglasses. We received them Tuesday when I got home. She is getting use to them and wears them for longer periods time.
 She and her Co-Dee.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!

A Sunday Swim

Sunday afternoon we decided to take a drive. When it was time for the dogs to get in their pen, Hatfield refused. He just stood at the car door. He wanted to go to. So we loaded them up and headed out. Our drive took us to a small lake about 20 minutes always. I didn't even know it existed. Anyways, we let the dogs swim. They loved it! Watch Lilly leap like a dolphin. Hilarious! Or at least it is to us.
