Today is the day Francesca turns 25! Happiest of birthdays to you my love. So thankful to have you in my life.

FORESTBOUND IN BUST MAGAZINE

Forestbound featured in the August/September issue of Bust magazine.

WORLDS END

Had a perfect summer day yesterday at World's End ,, an incredible 250 acre reservation right outside of Boston. Walked the pup all through fields & woods & rocky beaches. And then ate a lobster roll on the way home.

MONDAY JULY 25 // SUMMER VACATION

A few new bags up in the shop today -- The second one pictured features black leather for the first time .. something which will become more regular around here. And in the last photo you can see a faint drawing of a woman which came from a beautiful WWII era Navy sea bag and is incorporated into the bag shown above.

All are available in the shop now.

-- The Forestbound shop will be closing down for a bit while we escape to the beach so get your orders in before this Wednesday July 27th. Things will open up again Monday August 8th. --

AS THERAPY

Gardening as therapy at Walter Reed General Hospital for wounded WWI soldiers.

FRIDAY JULY 15

A new style that happened last week .. outer pockets in the style of my men's carryall but with all leather handles rather than the cotton webbing/leather detailed ones.

Made with WWII era US military duffle bag canvas. Available HERE.

PUP

Keep meaning to take photos of things other than this puppy but it's proven to be kinda tough ....

DOGS OF WAR

Life magazine has a really incredible online gallery of WWII dogs. These are some of my favorites.

Have potential cabin interiors on the brain a lot these days.

LONG WEEKEND

Had a perfect July 4th weekend .. lots of lounging pondside & poolside with close friends and family. Maisey loved being an off-leash country dog for a few days .. she even went for her first canoe ride & her first swim.

But now it's time to get back into the swing of things .. new bags will be appearing later on this week!
