just couldn't resist posting this delicious tarte

lunch on saturday

after the wonderful vermeer exhibit at the met

later in chelsea

on the high line

the transformation of the old rail line was terrific

the old nabisco baking company buildings

miss is thought these window panes looked like paint chips

nicely framed hudson view from the high line

the sky was the most amazing blue

the breeze was just right

and the sun was brilliant

a beautiful day

Check out one of the new spring 2009 fabrics.

 I just love these mermaids by Heather Ross.

In fact, I love all of Heather's fabrics.  

Whimsical, happy and fresh.

She has a great blog too.

This will be her last fabric collection for awhile 

because of a non-compete clause in a contract with a clothing manufacturer.

Read about Heather Ross here 

Here is another fun fabric

We actually brought a goldfish home in a plastic bag from a fair

and IT SURVIVED for almost a year.

Goldie was it's name, of course.

Remember last week when I posted about the Squam Art Camps

and I told you that we used to go there each summer for a glorious week.

Photo in the frame is from RDC

all the kiddies are going out to Loon Island for a picnic

in Mabel, the boat.

such wonderful memories

taking the road less traveled

will be back in a bit

toodle-oo

Blue Sky Sparklin' Day

describes the day perfectly

it is also the title of a wonderful children's song 

that Miss Is and I listened to over and over again years ago

Marathon trip up to New Hampshire 

and then back home, in a day! 

Miss Is to take the less traveled road...

as the OWLES set off for a three week wilderness trip 

traversing the northern regions of NH & ME

from Lake Umbagog, down the Androscoggin River, 

to Acadia National Park and Isle Au Haut 

and then to the Bigelow Mountains

living outside the whole time!

Ah, to be young.
