Fabyan Villa Aug 27, 2011

After getting cleaned up from the mud fights we (Suzia, Ela, Julia Stevie and myself) met Dziadzia for lunch at Denny's. Then we drove to the Fabyan Forest Preserves to view the grounds and the Villa. It is located in Geneva on the Fox River.
They have a beautiful Japanese flower garden on the premises. In the Windmill there is a coal burning stove that the Lady of the Villa had 120 loaves of bread baked daily for her 2 captured bears.
We spend a wonderful time exploring the grounds and learning some history as well.
The Windmill does operate on certain days. Check the schedule first.
