my beautiful daughter Bonnie

came over with a friend for some beach combing treasure hunting

Summer day in the park

~ 4 ~

stomping 'round the streets

we grew up on

twisted paths and crooked alleys

this is actually a public roadway

built about 275 years before the first automobile

my style ~ such as it is

we live on a rather tiny island near Boston

we are connected to the mainland by a 2 mile causeway

and have beaches on either side of our house

so...my "style", such as it is, is anything that works with

 salty air, ocean breezes

and sand

we have a good amount of company in the summer time

so there are plenty of extra sweatshirts and

big beach towels hanging on hooks in the hallway

this is a rocking chair in my kitchen that gets plenty of use

being curled up on in the morning sunshine

or while waiting for fresh cookies to come out of the oven

jars of seaglass sit on the windowsill behind the chair

and a little plant stand holds an old honey jar full of paintbrushes

in case one feels artistic

floral fridays

todays flowers

home sweet home

friday finds 

weekend wind down

friday my town shoot out
