NYC: Photo Roundup
American flags before the Delaware bridge
By this point in time have you gathered how we love to snap and share pics every time we visit NYC? What can we say — it's a city near and dear to our hearts. It's also a place we feel like we could visit for the rest of our lifetimes' and always find something new.

Our Trip To The High Line in New York City
Mary and I have been wanting to visit and walk The High Line in New York since it recently opened — the High Line is a newly finished and opened public park that was built on an old rail system that had since become overgrown with natural vegetation and trees and was actually in danger of being torn down. It's now owned by NYC and maintained as an incredibly beautiful public park where visitors can literally walk above the bustling streets on the west side of the city.

Virginia Farm Bureau at the Virginia State Fair
Last week Mary and I had the chance to visit the Virginia State Fair. Neither of us had been in years. It has probably been about 16 years since I've been, and Mary remembers going as a child with her family every year the fair came around.

Weekend Basics
Saturday we got up early and hit the streets for a walk with Basil. We've enjoyed getting up just before 8am on Saturdays to walk Basil throughout the fan — it seems like the neighborhood is still asleep, the birds are loud and lately we've been hitting lots of little yard sales that pop up here and there throughout the streets.

Easing Into Fall Decorating
We're easing into fall slowly this year. That being said, I couldn't help but pick up a handful of baby pumpkins to scatter across the house on our last trip to the grocery store.

Our Best Mad Men Style
Saturday night we had plans to go to one of Tim's best friend's 50th birthday party. Since the birthday boy was born in 1962, the invite requested we all dress up in our finest 1960's party attire. Being big Mad Men fans, we jumped at the chance to take it more in the direction of "Don & Megan" vs. the hippie vibe.
