While visiting friends in Sag Harbor, we took a drive to visit Madoo Garden. I’d never heard of it, but it’s a jewel. Though not very large in total acreage, it is laid out so ingeniously and whimsically that it feels much larger. Each small “room” has a unique character created by the layout, plants, and strategically placed, colorful objects, follies and structures. The property was originally the summer home of artist Robert Dash. It’s now a free public garden.
We made a short stop at the beach. The day was cloudy, the seas rough and the red warning flag fluttered at the shore. Not a day to swim, so there were very few people which made it a wonderful day for photographs.
