an afternoon at the bradley estate
top // shorts // hat (wrong color trim but i have this one too)
how pretty is the bradley estate?! this was a TOTAL surprise but ended up being so fun. we went the day after I got back from NYC and i was down to have a low-key day hanging around the house, especially since my flight home was the following day. but my cousin lauren mentioned it so we decided to go check it out :) so glad we did.
this estate was quintessential new england - everything was so green. and i will never get sick of seeing hydrangeas everywhere.
while we were there, we got to see a llama named Ruby, a little kitty cat named Napoleon, and chickens. these chickens were just wandering around free-range and all of a sudden they saw lauren and it was game over - they became so enamored with her. not chasing her or attacking her or anything, they were just following her (and only her) around. i still don't know how we got back to the car without them.
this day really was the cherry on top of such a fun trip. i think summer on the east coast has grown on me a lot. i have always loved the fall/ winter months and the idea of humidity has never made me super stoked. when i first arrived, we hit a big heat wave and i was kind of like, "wait.. this is the absolute worst it can get? this isn't so bad." so now naturally i want to go back next summer and explore other places. and of course see my family cause they really are the best 💛
thank you for reading! x
these chickens were OBSESSED with lauren.. they were following her around like she was their long-lost mother. they didn't pay anyone else attention but her. it was the funniest thing ever.
