City Escape

Thank goodness for friends who invite you to their cabin for the weekend! Leaving New York City is always amazing, regardless of the extra time you spend in traffic.

Having just broke up with my boyfriend the day before, I'm sure I was not the most effervescent guest... but still, they entertained me and made me smile. We took walks in the woods, swam in the pond and sipped wine late into the evening. At night I got to disappear into my own private room in the tree house.

The best part was watching my six year old pal Luke do all this big kid stuff. Excellent cannon balls into the pond, wiggling his first loose tooth and spying his first shooting star! So cool.

I was able to snap a few photos with my newly repaired camera (hallelujah!) but honestly, sitting around doing nothing was my primary activity. Much, much needed and enjoyed.

Oden couldn't wait to wake me up in the morning. It was so sweet to see him looking up at me, tail wagging, from the bottom of the tree house stairs.

i am so sorry to hear you broke up with your boyfriend! on another note, isn't it funny how getting out of the city is such an amazing feat? when we lived there and occasionally got away, i was always so surprised at how much i treasured my time out, and then how much more i loved the city when i got back!
