Dearest Diary,

Perhaps having Lady Pigeon accompany me to Ashford this morning was not the wisest of ideas. While I desire her comfort there, it is difficult to complete the tasks which must be completed while she is gadding about. We completed chores for not a half an hour before she required some exercise. This too seemed a way to strengthen her attachment to the estate, if she could but stroll its grounds and walking paths. I do hope that in time, it will, but she did not seem at peace this morning, pulling her lead with every strength she could muster. It is fortunate for me, she is not a larger breed like her cousin, the Chairman. Upon the discovery that nothing shall be completed during her stay, I promptly guided her back to the phaeton and we returned to Granada. She does ever so enjoy the journey betwixt the estates however, and is partial to riding with her head and tongue outstretched in the wind. This, I suppose, is not frightfully unusual among her breed.

The remainder of the day was also quite profitable. A comfortable dining table was ascertained for the Ashford Estate and Sister and I are to retrieve it on the morrow!
