Tea on the Lawn

The not-too-distant Mill of Kintail hosts a Tea on the Lawn on two afternoons a week through the summer months. We generally manage one visit each season. We also usually do coffee with Barb and Bob on most weeks but discovered that they had never done this tea event. That, of course, had to be rectified.

I took these two photos of Sue as we waited.

A bus from the seniors residence pulled in, so the tea was more attended than usual. I snapped this on the way out, For some reason it isn't in focus, but it gives you an idea of the scene. It'a all rather old-fashioned and quaint, but it is also quite beckoning.

We walked down the trail. it was thoughtful of Bob to wear red. 😊

I took another photo of Sue and her fine parasol as we ambled about.

We also paid a quick visit to the museum, which is the former residence of the Robert Tait McKenzie family. The ladies had been upstairs to visit McKenzie's sculptures.

There is a cloister, really an open chapel, on the grounds. It is often used for summer weddings.

Upon leaving we paid a quick visit to not-too-distant sunflower fields.

Bob and I determined to return at sunset with tripods. But did we?
