Catching up in New York

Always good to have a chat with dad in the mornings. Especially now Aunty Jill has gone, and it is a bit quieter around here!
But Grandma took me out to the baseball...I mean for a walk to the park, where they were playing baseball already...



It started off a bit rainy, but then the sun came out which was good!
So I got a good view.
And also a swing which was even more fun!
It looks a bit misty out there, but isnt it green now? Just one month ago, it was all brown still!
The pretty dogwood is in fllower up at the convent...and other places too!
But Grandma really wanted to see some quilts around at Dyckman house...the historic farmhouse around the corner.....
So off she went when I fell asleep.

She took a few photos in the garden. This squirrel looks quite friendly doesn't he?

The quilts were upstairs in the farmhouse....along with soeme very old samplers that have been preserved too...
One by Mary Brown who was only 10 years old ....
Some conservation going on in one of the rooms....

finally she caught up with the old quilts....



this one above some quilters did for the bed, as the original is too old to leave out lying around.

Down in the parlor....blue tiles beside the fire place....
The clock struck twelve when I was there reminding Cinderalla I ought to be moving on....
Another old quilt down stairs....


Another quick look around the garden....



Grandma really loves the tulips....

then she went to the local market to buy too much yummy food...
the window box looked good....

this man asked was I going to take his photo....I did , but I didn't tell him I did....we were out for our second walk of the day, down to the park in the afternoon....
I was really taking a photo of the tulips again!
Someone left some old dolls on a park bench. Obviously giving them away!

the baseball was still in progress....obviously green versus blue today!

the sun came out to shine through the leaves....very pretty....
the little leaguers were out too....
this tree is very clever growing on a rock!

what I like for dinner...haha

Mummy loves reading me a story....before I go to bed! I love Mummy and Daddy...
