Today, Friday, we pretty much stayed at home. We finished up the lawn work and them took a walk to the Joyce Grove. This is a large manor house that was once owned by the Fleming family, which made it's fortune in Scottish banking. A recent member of the family was Ian Fleming, the author of the James Bond novels. While the family still owns a lot of property in the area, this particular property has been donated to the Sue Ryder Foundation, which uses it as a nursing home. The grounds are beautiful and serene; a wonderful site for rest and relaxation.
