They have 40 peacocks running around....other farm animals and a giant swimming pool. It was a good trip for Ashlee and I, she really enjoyed being around his family. Made it home today and I am wore out. My hubby did all the laudry and had it all out away, what a great hubby. He is going to start working on the livingroom coffee table set, going to sand them down and make them beautiful again.
