                                           •   Long laps in our enormous pool while the children play basketball in the
                                         shallow end


                                       •   Afternoon tea parties under the grapevines


                                      •   An evening game of tennis under the lights


                                     •   A fireplace for every day of the week!


                                    •   Swinging under the big oak trees while the whole extended family plays baseball
                                    in the backyard


                                    •   Learning to identify the new chipmunks and bunnies every spring


                                     •   Cooking at the large cherry wood island where the children do their homework


                                      •   Scattering to the corners of the house when everyone needs a little “me” time


                                      •   4th of July: toddlers jumping on the trampoline, tweens skateboarding and
                                       playing basketball on the tennis court, teenagers around the firepit, and all of
                                       the dads burning their fingers on the fireworks


                                       •   This house was made for Christmas: the ceiling height for one – or more –
                                        Christmas trees, a grand staircase cloaked in boughs, an enormous wreath
                                        illuminating the outside of the house, a wealth of mantelpieces for the
                                        stockings


                                        •   The entertainment spaces: ping pong in the basement, a game of pool in the
                                        den, cards in the library, movies in the attic


                                       •   The housework practically does itself: 2 dishwashers, 2 washing machines, 2
                                       dryers, 2 refrigerators, 2 ovens, large closets and a laundry chute!

                                    •   Enjoying Brooklawn Country Club with our neighbors: playing paddle, walking
                                   our dogs on the golf course, sledding, bowling, eating lobster rolls, and attending
                                 interesting events


                              •   Eating fresh eggs from the backyard chickens up the road
