My Lucky Day

Yesterday was my lucky day. I walked over to the Sag Harbor Florist to buy an orchid as a birthday gift, and discovered that it was the first day of their month-long orchid sale. So in addition to the gift I took this small one home for myself--for just $15.

Something Beautiful

My friend Barb urged me to go and see the beautiful wreath, provided by Sag Harbor Florist (3 Bay Street, 725-1400), that's decorating the windmill now. So this morning before I went to the post office and the IGA and Java Nation I walked over to Long Wharf to check it out. Before I could take any photos, I just stood there, happily surprised by all of the little things that made the scene memorable: The starfish on the wreath, the historic windmill, our beautiful bay in the background, and the fragrant pines (for sale to benefit the Lions' Club) perfuming the air. My photos on their own don't begin to convey the little thrill I got just from stopping at this spot.
