Christmas Rose

I have heard of Christmas in July, now my Fourth of July rose is also blooming in December for Christmas.

Sand Cliff

Just a bit of coastal erosion

Hot Ride

This very special sports car has black leather seats with orange trim to match the car paint.

Back Home

Back in Southampton. Beach report, less surf than I expected with the strong on shore wind we have today.

VACATION

Robert is not in the Hamptons this week. You can see current photos of my travels on Instagram check out RMLhamptons. Thank you.

Warm December

This summer's plants in pots on the south side of the house are hanging in there.

Weather Break

The tide comes in

Gray Day

The foggy weather made very soft lighting in this area.

Stormy Day

Stormy Beach

Holiday Stripes

 

State of the Art

This modern residential basement shows how utilities have changed. The small white box on the left is the furnace. Red lines are hot water, blue lines are cold water. Most rooms have direct runs to the cellar so water can be turned off as needed.

Airport Connection

It was a stunning sunrise over the Westhampton Pine Barrons

Pre Sunset

Cryder beach dunes

Warm Holiday

Bridgehampton

I think we all like driving by this great barn

Perfect Waves

The ocean waves yesterday, the most perfect, film version at my intsagram- RMLhamptons

No Frost Here Yet

My pots are still going strong

Late Bloom

Just a nice bit of color on my table

Montauk Branch

There was a time when most people came here by train.

Yesterday

This was last night before the rain came in tonight

Something New

These exotic blue & purple berries are from a vine called Porcelianberry. The vines are very sturdy and seem difficult to pull once established.

More Nice Days

Just another perfect sunset

Another Beach Day

This afternoon we walked down to Cryder Beach, then along the coast and returned back home from South Main Beach. The beach at sunset was sublime.

Bonus Day

WoW what a nice beach day, there was a bit of wind you do not see in this photo.

Nature Trail

Today we hiked out Jessup Neck, aka The Morton Wildlife Refuge

This is  along spit of land pointing to the North Fork between the Peconic Bay and Noyac Bay

Timing

Racing out Meadow Lane to catch a good view of the sunset

Got it !

 

Hamptons Nightlife

Getting wet & wild at Bridgehampton Commons

Bramble

Rose Hips, Bayberry, Bittersweet, Beach Grass and Poison Ivy

Wet Beach

Today we are getting some much needed rain.

Big Blue

Lake water

Private Access

What a  nice walkway over the dunes to one's own stretch of beach.

Cats Up

The black cat Spider checking out the new catio room at the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation.

Sea Foam

We spent the day fogged in here today. The surf had a jade like look to it. 

Big Top

This big open overhang at the Parrish reminds me a bit of a circus tent.

Flash Point

As the wave recedes there is a moment when the water left is flat enough to catch a reflection of the setting sun.

Raspberries & Holly Berries in November in my Garden

Great Surf

It is rare to see the surf breaking this far out from the beach. I do not expect that the colder  will keep all the surfers land side.

The colors this fall seem exceptional good
