a weekend trip to kerr


happy monday! this weekend was wonderfully good. we packed a picnic & headed toward the kerr center for sustainable agriculture where luke now works. he showed me the many educational & research projects he is working on along with the beautiful landscapes this sweet, sweet place offers.






after the farm, we headed toward the pond for a cool dip in the water & dinner by the dock.






the kerr center is full of magic & i am excited to go back. i am so proud of luke’s accomplishments & look forward to supporting him as he learns more & grows into his new career.

other things happened this weekend, too. i cooked an entire WHOLE chicken from the local monastery in town. oh yes, i did! after staring blankly at the chicken for a couple of days, i finally dug in in & roasted it successfully. we have made three meals from the meat so far & plan to use the bones for broth. on saturday, i spent the entire morning at yard sales & filled up the back of the car with vintage goodness. we also visited the farmer’s market & picked up a beautiful bouquet of wild flowers & our first weekly order of raw goat milk.

a good weekend full of time together outside- i couldn’t ask for anything more.

love,
natalie
