看过范德比尔庄园,接着赶路东行。预定了六点的轮渡,迟到玩完。

车子开出不久,渐渐接近长岛尖尖的orient point,路两旁葡萄园一个紧挨一个,不由让人产生错觉,俺们这是在中西部的大道上狂奔吗?



后来上船前遇到一个老太太,来自纽约州乔治湖,这次来参加亲戚们的家族活动,这条路她跑多了,知道从前的样子。老太太说以前大多是农场,现在酒庄居多。为嘛,纽约客的花园酒馆么。

长岛开出了中西部的味道,快马加鞭,很快GPS指示到达目的地。右边的进出口实在不起眼,以致俺们飞快错过入口。打个U-Turn拐进去,里面豁然开朗。对于什么都慢半拍的俺们,看来这次是早了半拍呵呵




虽不是全盛期,气场也是杠杠的









养蜂,特理解。前次去本地一个薰衣草农场,正值鼎盛花期,把那些成群结队的小蜜蜂忙得够呛,想插个队在花丛中捏一张,蜜蜂们跟俺抢地盘。





纳闷去过的薰衣草农场都有一个鸡舍,虽然羡慕这群幸福的鸡,待到花花烂漫时,它们丛中叫,非常惬意的鸡生。但也表示不解,于是上网搜,搜来这一段:


Good for your Hens  More than just an attractive herb, lavender has long been used for its aromatic and healing properties- and not just with humans! Lavender is a great stress reliever for hens who might be a bit highly strung. It also helps to increase blood circulation, is a great natural insecticide, and of course smells heavenly! Add some fresh lavender to your coops nesting boxes to provide a bit of aromatherapy for your girls-they’ll love it! Or if you want to get extra creative, try your hand at the lavender and mint coop cleaner below, it will help to repel rodents and insects and keep your coop smelling extra sweet!

有点意思,母鸡下蛋,似乎天经地义,其实也是一份努力一份付出一份收获,它们也会有难度有压力,需要缓解,而薰衣草貌似很得鸡心。

记住了,天地下没有白吃的鸡蛋,哈哈哈。

后面这一片颇有起色。88  Lavender By the Bay
