An American Bald Eagle...breathtaking...going right along with us...


See him.her in the middle of the shot....so close to us!


The boys....1st motor boat ride for my son!  HE WAS LOVING 
IT!



The horse farm from the water...




Working dairy farm...so cool!


The gals and I were dropped back off to swim while the "men" went for a 
speedy ride! 



Afterwards we packed it up and went back to
the main house....



Some antiques from their home...soooo lovely...



Sammie was asleep from the time we got into
the truck from the docks until we got to 
the main house...then slept there...then back
to the truck and slept all the way home...


Beautiful fireplace anchored the family room...full of light
and love!



Lots of books..









Here is a link to the Duck Harbor Pond Group for more information on this awesome place!

I have to say we had such a wondeful blessed time today with Beth, her children
and Nana and PopPop!  Thank you so much for having us!

We can't wait to be asked back....maybe bring the hubby this time!

Duck Harbor is a really wonderful place! I live in the private community owned by Joe & Nancy Harcum. My family and I have a ton of fun going out on the lake and exploring! I board my horse at the farm and am just a quick 4-wheel ride away. There's lot of land still available in The Woods at Duck Harbor as well, if anyone wants their own piece of paradise.

I'm glad you had such a great time! The area truly is beautiful and your amazing pictures caught everything absolutely perfectly. (:

The girls and I talked about what is happening outside with the plants and animals. Waking up!  Sammie also enjoyed this Sofia the First Unit. We had so much fun making our Chocolate Volcano Cakes from our Raddish box this week.   Of course some Spring crafting was in order. We made these easy cupcake paper and button flowers pictures.
