From a friend hiking in the Whites today. Ledge shrub/blueberries got baked by drought but trees looking good! Should be a warm but excellent weekend for hiking and cruising in the Whites/Greens 🍂 🍁

#YorkMansionHouse house was built for the Lord Mayor of York between 1725 and 1732, making it a perfect setting for the #GeorgianDance dance lesson I attended there this evening! These pictures are of the State Room (where we danced), the staircase, the Dining Room, and a view of St. Helen’s Square.

And now for something completely different.. Harald Slott-Møller (Danish painter and ceramist) 1864 - 1937 Woman on a Sunlit Farm, 1916 oil on canvas 54 x 72 cm. private collection

Today I got my bearings in #Georgian York because, let’s be honest, I spend most of my time in the #18thcentury. This entailed walking in the footsteps of my new obsession, #AnnFairfax. These photos are of #FairfaxHouse, which Ann’s father gave her in trust when she was 38 (remarkable for the 1760s)

A quiet Sunday morning in the garden. More colorful nasturtiums, morning glory, September roses, and ripe Cornus kousa dogwood tree fruit, which the squirrels love! I also saw an adorable little rabbit near the hedge! Happy Sunday, everyone! 🍁🌼🏠🎹🎵🐇🥕
