It is my favorite place to sit. A breeze always blows. The birds come very close to me and perch on the wires near the house. The activity at the barn at the opposite end of the field is a great source of entertainment. And best of all, I can sit in one of the four rocking chairs and drink my tea. This favorite spot is on the porch at the side of the farm house. It is a perfectly splendid place to sit.
The Bedford Springs Inn first opened in the early 1800's, to provide an opportunity to "take the waters", as they used to do in olden times. Over the years it expanded and expanded, but then it got old. Twenty years ago it closed. Now, after a renovation that took over $100 Million, it is open for business. Friends stayed for a weekend to golf and use the spa, and were shocked that we had not seen the renovation, as the farm is only 30 minutes away. Saturday, Ken and I drove up to check it out. It is beautiful and well worth a visit. After walking all around the grounds and the building, we ate lunch in the Crystal Dining room, a little under-dressed as we were coming from the farm. It would be a great place for a Family event. Perhaps Ken and I will have our 60Th Anniversary there!! It is a lovely spot.
