My day at Wave Hill

[silver_chipmunk]

So I got up this morning and went to the bagel store for coffee and breakfast. Then went to the 50 bus and in to the Bronx where I met up with L from my Friday meeting and we went to Wave Hill, which is a former mansion and gardens open to the public now. I'd heard of it from the FWiB actually, and had always wanted to go there, so this was my chance. Sadly, N, whose idea it was to go, couldn't make it at the last minute so it was just me and L. But we had a good time. It's a beautiful place.

We had lunch there and walked around, and went to the art gallery, and finally just as it was starting to rain we left.

Then she drove me to my bus stop and I went home and called mashfanficchick to find out if she wanted me to come over. She said she'd contact me later. So I Skyped the FWiB and we had a very nice conversation.

And then I lay down in the bedroom and played on my cell phone and read until mashfanficchick called and asked if I wanted to come over for dinner. So I did, stopping at the bank and Starbucks first. We had pizza, and a very nice time.

And then I came home and printed out directions to the meeting I'm going to tomorrow morning. And now it's time for bed.

Gratitude List:

6. Didn't get badly rained on.

Wave Hills sounds fabulous. I was so intrigued I looked it up on Wikipedia and now I think I must add it to the list of places I would love to visit. Glad you were able to go and that you enjoyed your visit.

Thank you! Yes, it was lovely, and I was so glad to finally see it. If you ever come to New York City, maybe we can go together!

I love it when people open up previously hidden buildings. It makes me happy that I can openly be a snoop, and where I can judge people's decorating style and can point in obnoxious ways. XD

Yeah, there's a nice one on Long Island called Old Westbury Gardens that's great for that.
