nature – Page 48 – Stylish Heath

This weekend was not spent near a cabin on the lake or on a quiet cove at the beach, and as inviting as these two destinations sound a few of us hit the pavement in NYC visiting museums before exhibits left the city on July 29th. Arriving late on Friday due to traffic, we settled into “Gotham’s” rhythm and spent the evening in SoHo shopping at a few of our favorite haunts.

Last night after dinner we walked the High Line {about 1.45 miles} in the Meat Packing District, which has a unique vantage. A park built on disused land on the former NY Central Railroad lines. You can walk viewing art, and seeing new buildings created by talented architects.

Travel stylishly,

It’s been a rough workweek with endless meetings, deadlines that had to be met, along with weather conditions that had the mid-Atlantic under intense cloud cover with severe rain. The ground has been saturated for the past two weeks making it difficult to work in the garden.
Then all of a sudden the sun came out after weeks in hiding, and when looking out the kitchen window I noticed the peonies drooping. So, I grabbed the camera, headed outdoors to photograph these gorgeous blooms before they disappeared. {Peonies at Heath after the rain storm}

Weekends are for relaxing so, when the invitation came for cocktails at Eddie V’s, I couldn’t travel fast enough to Tyson’s One in McLean. Seriously, who can resist cocktails and dessert.

Enjoy
