Not the vessel I was on

No, I wasn't on this lovely ship, with Governors Island in the background, but I was on the water. I took the free water taxi to IKEA in Red Hook and it was so gorgeous I could have just ridden back and forth all day. And I managed to come back with only some marzipan and two bottles of elderflower cordial. Victory!

I got together this morning for a long chat with one of my elementary school gifted teachers. What a treat! I'm so glad she got in touch, and at 71, married for 47 years, she has a really special perspective on life's twists and turns.

Here's hoping to a few more gorgeous days like this, before fall turns decidedly chilly and the holiday crazy sets in.
