A Fawn Flirts in Middleburg ;)

~Sandra LONDON hiding behind Endangered Words in Virginia~

I fly back to the West Coast on my magic succubi wings tomorrow mid-afternoon. I've had an absolutely wonderful, whimsical sojourn in the District of Columbia and its environs.


The first full day was spent in Middleburg, Virginia. 


I happened upon The Christmas Sleigh, where I bought a super sexy green hunting jacket and sampled regional wine at the Boxwood Winery.  


Dined at the Red Fox Inn where I discovered my new favorite crutch, Raspberry Merlot!!!!

My goodness, this is ridiculous..


It is so hard to amuse me that I seem like a snot half the time...and yet this is my new next best vice in the entire world. 


I summoned a hand-written note from the waiter of exactly where, when, and how I could procure more of this delectable dessert wine.


Absolutely, terribly fabulous. Double swoon.

OK...so today, earlier...or I guess now I am officially referring to yesterday, I ambled about D.C. and was blown away by the Smithsonian's African Art museum.


Every single piece of art and/or artifact in this museum was completely spell-bounding. 


I felt very....inspired(?)( moved?) as I beholded the very definition of "kalon"* in its purest form.

It is way too late for me to even still be typing as I have an early (for me) flight. 


I only waited this long because I had to find roundabout means to import photos for this post.


So, for now, I kind of want to cut this short..but I definitely plan on fleshing out the corpus of my latest trip back East.


In a short phrase...."Soooo much fun" . 


In a high brow nod, " Evoking a vestige of ancestral consciousness while not diminishing tender moments of 'descipience'**...."

And so, this makes either perfect sense or I've had too much Cruz Alta (Mendoza's blend).


More on solid ground..... A domani!!!
