Weekend at Tanglewood

I've wanted to go to Tanglewood, an outdoor classical music festival in the Berkshires, for longer than I can remember. This past weekend, I finally got the chance to attend, and it was worth the early wake-up time. The grounds were beautiful, and the views of the mountains and the lake will be on my mind for some time (not to mention the fancy garden with the sundial and the whispering bench). The Boston Symphony Orchestra played Mozart well under the baton of Sir Neville Marriner, whom I had only heard of (or heard on the radio) previously. I'd go again, hopefully with more time on my hands.

Weekend

This past weekend, I went dress shopping again (no dice, but I did get a delicious smoothie from The Juice Press—"The Brazilian.") I also explored part of the Lower East Side and am itching to go back and photograph more of the neighborhood. I made time for violin, exercise, and essential oils. It was pretty good, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward more to these next few days.

Last Weekend of Summer

The last weekend of summer was social and quiet, and busy and relaxing. On Friday night, I saw "Le ballon rouge," which was surprisingly moving and far better than "Le voyage du ballon rouge," though it did have a "happy ending," which I consider an essential feature of American movies. Saturday found me trying pommes frites in the East Village, catching up with and learning from a new friend through the Union Square Farmer's Market and the Flatiron District. Sunday was delightfully quiet. I did squeeze in a mini-adventure at Sunrise Market, a Japanese grocery in SoHo, where I bought Black Black (caffeinated) gum. I listened to music, read, and prepared for the coming season. I'm looking forward to a good autumn.
