It was Christmas 2008, and all three of our children and their mates/significant others came to stay with us at our townhouse in Chesapeake, VA. The day after Christmas we drove north in two cars for seven hours to spend a few days in New York City. On one day my husband and I walked the entire length of Central Park. Another day we set out by subway to take the ferry to Staten Island. Then we came back into Manhattan and visited the neighborhoods I wanted to see. My top choice was Tribeca. When we happened upon the Tribeca Wine Merchants I asked him to snap a photo. At the time I was hardly a wine drinker at all. I had to move back to the Bethel Valley Girls to do that! It would be two and a half years until I had a wine bar in my house. That's when I adopted more of a wine lifestyle. So why this photo? I just loved the look of it. Now I want a copy of it hanging in my wine bar. I didn't visit this store, but I was drawn to it. Clairvoyantly drawn to it.
