ACB Wednesday N for NATURE

I've been a bit absent from Mrs.Nesbitt's ABC Wednesday -though I've often gone to visit.
Today I saw Reader Wil's super NATURE pictures so decided to be a copy cat.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.



Yesterday we went to Long Island.
Here the old boat house of Coindre Hall.



I would be quite happy living in the middle of the harbor.



I could have an extremely small boat and tie it under a tree.



This is the same swan from yesterday - but now he's busy cleaning himself.

Blue and Tan

Some calm after the excitement of the Halloween party.
I think it was Leslie who first alerted me to the delights of blue and tan.
When I was looking for some sort of theme for today's post, I decided they were linked by color. Better than being utterly random.
This first an enviable house in the west Village. The sort of house that makes me drool........



Looking into a shop front on 7th Avenue at 24th Street. This had been a sort of down-at-heels linens shop that had had a going-out-of-business sale for about six years. The usual attractions of shabby-chic or palimpsest.(Something, usually a document or parchment, with lots and lots of layers.)



An autumnal hydrangea bush in Cold Spring Harbor.



Little boats in Huntington harbor.



A swan off Gold Star Battalion Beach. The water so calm and pellucid.
Dictionary day: File under P.



Looking across the harbor to Lloyd Neck.
