Nappy Valley...in New York

- The Gatsby Connection 2 days ago Looking from "East Egg" to "West Egg"When The Great Gatsby opened at our local cinema last week, The Doctor and I rushed to see it. Not because we are huge fans of Leonardo di Caprio or even Baz Luhrmann (although the fact that Luhrmann himself was in that very cinema the week before was exciting)....
- Where I Live: Green 6 days ago When I first visited America properly, it was on a trip to Virginia in 1995. And one of the things that struck me was how green everything was. Lawns seemed a darker, more vibrant green than in England and the trees more lush. The warm, humid climate and violent rainstorms that go with summer on...
- Spring at the NYBG: a pictorial post 1 week ago As I've mentioned here before, we love the New York Botanical Garden. We became members two years ago and visit every few months; there's always something new in bloom, and there are excellent activities for the Littleboys in the children's garden and elsewhere, from nature trails to seed planting...
- A tale of two houses 1 week ago Not that many people here know I have a blog. I've just never got round to telling them, and it seems a bit odd to let it slip now. But someone said to me today that I should write a book one day about some of my experiences here - in particular a funny story that happened last week. Tempted though...
- Contrasts: The Island and the City 2 weeks ago The sun shines on the calm, still Bay outside my bedroom window, the water sapphire blue and dotted with little white sails.

Have enjoyed reading your blog, I visited USA for the first time this year for my son's wedding in Central Park, NY. I actually started looking at ex-pat blogs as he and his new wife have moved to China directly after their stay in NY, as I know his wife is doing a blog also,but via Twitter. I had wondered if any one else was in the area that they were to see what others are writing about the place, but there were not any in the same area as them. Then I looked at India, New Delhi in particular as my husband and I were ex-pats there for a time. Then I looked at USA, and NY in particular and found your blog, which I found interesting and amusing, hope your knees get back to normal soon.
