My husband and I live on a "gentleman's farm".  We really enjoying doing a lot of outdoor activities.  We will pack up our entire family (animals) and camp in our horse trailer.  We also enjoy spending time with our friends, exploring new restaurants.  We will select a new place, and venture out for the day to check out the cuisine.
