One last Summer Stroll "Out East"

I cannot believe how quickly the summer has come and gone.  And while I am one who normally turns the page quickly (and early), I cannot help but want just one or two more moments of summer serenity, no matter how fleeting.  For now, the boots can stay in the closet and the sweaters in the drawer as I take one last summer stroll through the Houses and Gardens of the Hamptons. 

Come let's stroll together past cedar shake houses and white pickets fences...

Through boxwood framed gardens on pea-gravel paths...

... and into clean, chic, refreshing interiors that easily blend traditional and modern elements to create create that oh so wonderful summer feeling.
