Lately, we have spent our Saturday evenings at a dam on our property.  We throw together a simple dinner of meat, bread, a basic salad and some cold beer.  It feels like a mini escape without spending any money, making any bookings or needing to change out of our farm clothes.

It is a perfect spot to grill some home raised lamb ribs.

The kids like to eat them cave man style, is there any other way?

The high bank is a perfect place to watch the sunset.

A few nervous sheep occasionally trot down the steep bank for a drink.

There was a tiny flame burning on a marshmallow, shedding just enough light on a little nose before it was blown out and the whole thing was demolished.

 

With nothing but the frogs and the fire to listen to we poke sticks in the fire and watch the moon and stars.  Then we head home for hot showers and an early night.

Do you have a favourite mini escape?

Happy Sunday friends.  I hope you are enjoying the spring sunshine.
