We are starting to celebrate our anniversary month. Next week will be our 40th. Today we went to Old Westbury Gardens east on Long Island. It is a large estate built by steel magnate, Jay Phipps. This is where many films were made--most notably North by Northwest and, not so notably, Hitch. We wanted to go early in the season to avoid the crowds. It was "Dog Day." Because the Phipps family loved dogs, the estate has 3 or 4 days a year where people can bring their canine friends. There were hundreds of dogs. Luckily, we got there early before the dog crowds.
It was beautiful but I think we will return later in the season when there are more flowers, leaves (and people).
