Scenes from July

Posted on 11:00 AM by Unknown
Here's where I distract myself with happier thoughts, okay?

Cherries at the farmers market. I don't particularly care for eating them, but wow are they pretty.


Bee balm! A staple of my childhood summers spent wandering in the wildflower paths and the woods near our house.


A late night cruise around the New York harbor with a lovely friend.


I'm so glad we finally became friends after a year of working in the same office, so we can share cupcakes and beers and talks.


Sunset picnic on the highline with said friend(s)



One thing I've learned in the last couple months is that I do have great friends - even if some of them live far away, I've realized I can still rely on them via the internet. I don't feel as friendless in this lonely city as I did this winter, and that has improved things immensely.
