OCTOBER: SAILING & WINE TASTING!!



Wine and Cabin Club took to the high seas of Oyster Bay and set sail on the Christeen, a late 1800's Oyster sloop sail boat. It was a crisp, sunny day! Afterwards, wine tasting was held on a family farm were lamas, donkeys, oxen, and other such delightful animals, came to meet us. Rick inspired Leslie and I to try raw oysters, and we had a quick jaunt through a field of sunflowers. On the way home, we indulged in some hot, sweet, buttery, golden corn on the cob. It was an excellent day!!!!!!

Rick's 27th for September




September was a low-key, we met up for Brunch in the East Village and then went downtown for a few bloody mary's at International in honor of Rick's Birthday!!! We got free cheese and crackers to boot!

August: Brunch, Museums, and Boat Basin!!


Leslie organized a fun filled UES day with brunch at Eli's Vinegar Factory, and a a tour of the Cooper Hewit Design Museum (Design for a Living World was on exhibit, a sustainable theme). And, we also went to the Guggenheim to see Chagall and Marc paintings. Ricks' friends from Pittsburgh were in town, so we all met up for beers at the 79th Street Boat Basin! Bottoms up ;)
