Picnic on the Creek |July 4, 1883 | Thomas Eakins
This looks like a pleasant spot for a family picnic on July 4th long ago. I'm glad they took the dog along for some quality creek swimming. Enjoy the holiday, Rosemary.

Coney Island | Weegee, 1940
Standing Room only on the beach at Coney Island in 1940! I wonder if this vintage photo was taken on July 4th? I hope you are able to find a less crowded spot to enjoy this long holiday weekend commemorating America's Independence Day.

Chateau du Grand Luce, Loire...
Chateau du Grand Luce, Loire Valley, France A former property of the French government, Chateau du Grand-Luce’ is now privately owned and has recently undergone a $10 million dollar restoration. The chateau and its magnificent gardens have attained the status of French National Landmarks. And while it is close to numerous other chateaux of the famed Loire Valley, many guests enjoy the pleasures of Chateau du Grand-Luce’ so much that they often choose not to venture beyond the walls with its beautiful gardens and woods! This looks wonderful. I haven't been there, have you? Watch video here.

Greener Acres - Perfect Pool House in Chicago
Greener Acres - Chicago Home "Greener Acres ~ A grand home in Lake Forest goes formal and nearly flowerless with Euro-style landscape design" I love this perfect pool house, don't you? The article from Chicago Home Magazine is very interesting. Notice the lack of color in the landscape design . . . green only. Don't forget to view the photo gallery.

Green Pleated Skirt by Maira Kalman
Sounds like a plan. Isn't this one of the sweetest things to dream about?
"My dream is to walk around the world. A smallish backpack, all essentials neatly in place. A camera. A notebook. A traveling paint set. A hat. Good shoes. A nice pleated (green?) skirt for the occasional seaside hotel afternoon dance." — The Principles of Uncertainty by Maira Kalman
