good weekend


On sunday, we went to a new restaurant in Hastings, one of our favorite river towns, or towns anywhere, nice, small, funky, artsy community, not as materialistic as many towns nearby...Juniper is a small "New American" restaurant, really good food (gourmet burgers, porchetta) in small space, with a recent favorable New York Times review they were overwhelmed, so service was slow... Bridget being in public ate it up, staring and smiling at everyone around, we left the place with her waving to everyone, and they in turn saying goodbye to Bridget, we might have her running for mayor of Hastings... we went to our favorite place in the region, Stone Barns, guaranteed good time, with Bridge on my back, toured the animals and showed her pigs, hens, sheep, etc. She got up close to some hefty pigs, these ladies must have tipped the scales at 400 lbs... we then headed to the courtyard and cafe, can't beat sitting in the sun with a cup of tea, looking at beautiful architecture (yes, stone barns).. Bridget was walking all over petting dogs, hugging children, dancing a jig and looking at everything... yes, good times.
