Happy Monday.  Stressful week ahead?  Summer heat and storms got you worried?  Below is your chill-ax tool.  A peaceful stroll through the Heather Garden in full mid-summer bloom at Fort Tryon Park, right next to my home.  Feel free to use it whenever anxiety strikes and then come visit it yourself.  Take the A Train to 190th Street, elevators to surface and then turn right.  Enjoy the stroll.  Continue on to The Cloisters (The Metropolitan Museum Medieval Collection) for tapestries, arms and armor and more.  And then return September 30 for the 2018 Medieval Fair in our lovely park.  Mark your calendar now!
