Me, My Cards and Sunday's Ride to Cold Spring Harbor

Gary and I took a ride to Cold Spring Harbor on Sunday to deliver my cards to a wonderful little shop on Main Street.....EZ Calligraphy

The ride there was a generic kind of Long Island ride..highways winding from the South Shore , where we live...taking us up to the North Shore.....where the landscape gradually changes and goes from flat ocean and bay front communities like ours.....to hilly north shore roads leading up to the harbor .... and the Long Island Sound

Once you get off of the highway..the roads leading in to Cold Spring Harbor are quiet..winding roads with a lot of "nothingness" around.....and then...suddenly........you're on Main Street!..with the harbor to your left...(this is when I usually let out one of my long sighs..and wish for a house on the water... my dream home..)

I hadn't been up to Cold Spring Harbor in quite a while (years)..and when we drove alongside of the harbor.....I felt like I needed to act like a tourist and jump out of the car....with camera in hand..and take some pictures of the harbor......

It was so beautiful...the water was partially frozen..looking so blue....topped with large plates of ice and frosty looking caps on the water that had movement......it made a beautiful backdrop for this wonderul little town...

We drove down main Street passing all of the little houses that are now shops that can keep you browsing all day...
...EZ Calligraphy is located at 147 Main Street...in one of the vintage homes that line the street

Anne and Michelle, the owners, are welcoming.... down to earth ladies who "know their business"....they have a beautiful bright shop offering calligraphy, fine stationary, invitations, gifts and favors for almost any occasion or event.......and now..... yes you guessed it...they also carry a line of my cards!

If you're a local, and visit Cold Spring Harbor.......bring your camera....you'll love the town..the shops.....the harbor..(well maybe on a day when it's NOT 12 degrees like it was on Sunday)......and be sure to visit Anne and Michelle at EZ Calligraphy.... to see what they offer....and to take a peek at my cards!
