Love 40
Russell killed Nigel at tennis in the backyard. Went for a family run today (well, the kids biked) along the canal. Had to stop for every interesting tidbit! Then on to the CLA Game Fair. This is a fair that is held somewhere different in the UK each year so we were very lucky to find it was being held just down the road from where we are staying! There were many interesting areas to take in (over many acres of property). We commented that both of our parents would have loved this fair, especially the dog parts! There was every variety of hunting/retrieving/terrier dog there. They put on shows and demos of their skills! Really neat. The birds of prey were also pretty amazing and very up close! There was also clay shooting, target shooting and other types of shooting as well as a large area for the sport of fishing. We covered a lot of ground and were all exhausted by the end of the day. Tonight will just be relaxing and of course a trip into the village to the park. The kids just came in excited to report a bounty of 6 eggs! Breakfast - check!

Harris Hawk
OMG! Don looked for birds of prey for our entire trip - I think we only saw 1 heron. He would have been stunned to have a hawk land right in front of him. Well done!
