Blazing the Trails

We went on our first High Tea outing today. As is always the case when we go out for a walk, rain was expected. It didn't rain on our tea party, but there certainly was mud on the ground. After getting a late start we walked briskly to a spot down by the Potomac River in Red Rock Wilderness Park. On the menu was PB&J sandwiches, box mix blueberry muffins, and Twining's Earl Grey Tea.

This is us drinking tea. As you can see, Zac is wearing a sports coat and tie. I'm wearing a green taffeta dress, but you can't see that here.

This is me in my green taffeta dress.

Kirke had fare of her own. She didn't end up eating it. I think she was a little distracted by all the new smells.

Looking at the pictures afterward, we realized that we appeared to have had visitors. We also saw a tree that looked like a person. The dryads must have approved of our activities.


It was a nice time and not too cold. We decided we liked it very much, having tea out in the woods dressed like we were somewhere quite distinguished. And we were.
