I like the feel of the sun on my brow, and the garden getting more glorious everyday. I get a mean case of the blues every year when summer ends.

I've never been so happy I don't play tennis - there is no way I could keep up. We walked, talked, rode bikes to Sconset (and to Surfside, Madaket and Steps beach), swam, drank a little wine, and ate a lot of delicious seafood and fresh strawberries. I called her Miraval Merrill.
