Horners' Odyssey: Hemlock Trail

Hemlock Trail

We spent a great weekend with A's American godparents R&G and their family at their lake-house, Hemlock Trail, in Maine.

It has a beautiful view.

In fact, the property consists of the main house; two cabins, one of which we were using; a boat-house, two piers, tennis court, a toolshed and a garage.

New Englanders call this kind of holiday home a 'camp' - an almost English piece of understatement.

Anyway we had a great time. B went out wake-boarding, and managed to get up after about 8 attempts.... which was momentously captured on film.



S is forbidden from such vigorous sporting activities at the moment, but did thoroughly enjoy zooming about in the speedboat watching B fall splat on his face in the water.

Then we knocked a few tennis balls about.





A thoroughly enjoyed hanging out in her own personal pool, and being taken for outings in her own personal yacht.





And S got some quality chill-out time as well.
