Month: December 2007

Reflection

I was talking to my cousin out in San Francisco the other day.  She mentioned that it was a cold 44° and rainy.  On Friday it was a…

Bring up the rear

Well, it seemed only fair to have a shot from this end.  I don't think the little guys in the back get as much attention. 

Cold Duck

Anytime I walk around the Public Garden, with a camera, I almost always have to take a picture of the Make Way for Ducklings statue.  It's hard to…

Fruity Santa

The day after Christmas is always a bit of a recovery (which is why I'm posting late today, plus I'm on vacation).  It's hard to believe that Christmas…

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone!  I hope you all are spending this day with loved ones.  Putting aside all the stresses of shopping, cooking, cleaning, etc., I really love…

Oh, Christmas Tree

Not much for a photo today.  This was taken after the second snow storm last week.  No, snow expected for Christmas this year but we should still probably…

Garden Girl 2

Here is another image of the Garden Girl from the holiday party.  Yesterday's photo was taken with the camera on auto and with the built in flash.  Today's…

Garden Girl

Yesterday was the holiday party at work.  This year we had a garden variety theme.  The theme is kept top secret and usually know one is allowed in…

Snowy Bridge

This photo, taken last Friday, is so drab and dreary.  A bit how I'm starting to feel walking to work this week.  Just last month I had taken…

Slidewalk

I didn't take the SLR camera to work today.  I figured the sidewalks would be pretty icy and didn't want to fall with the camera on my shoulder. …

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow…

Okay, I think I've had enough snow for a few days!  This was taken during the first storm last Thursday.  I didn't realize it would be so hard…

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night…

No, I'm not talking about the US Post Office.  I'm referring to the big guy in the red suit. He's even more reliable than the Post Office when…

Wagon Wheel

This was a wheel inside the JB Baker Blacksmith Shop. I liked the look of it leaning against the wall with nothing else around it.  I have no…

JB Baker Blacksmith Shop

Not a great photo but it is warmer.  This is inside the J.B. Baker Blacksmith Shop (my great grandfather).  I believe the shop was built around 1845 by…

Can we turn the heat up?

Sure looks like a chilly ride to me!  This ice sculpture was located just to the left of the horses' stall.  I love the detail in these sculptures. …

nICE horsey

Holidays in Halifax was this past Saturday night.  As always, they do a wonderful job.  If you've never been, it's a really nice walk around to the various…

Kissing Ball

As I was walking through Downtown Crossing to catch the commuter rail I came across a tent with Christmas trees, wreaths and kissing balls.  Just last week I…

Frost Family

Wow, 9am and I'm getting an email from Mom wondering where the blog photo is for her and Dad to look at. It's freezing cold outside, I'm starting…

Gnome Mobile

With the elves busy making toys, Santa has hired Gnomes to watch over his sleigh. This was taken in the yard where Santa's workshop is located.  I didn't…

Santa’s Workshop

This is one of Santa's workshops.  Unfortunately, I have been sworn to secrecy, by the elves, and can only tell you that it is located in the north-east….

Gingerbread House

Yesterday, M&D, C&K and I went on the Pilgrim Hall Museum's Second Annual Holiday House Tour.  While this sweet ole house wasn't open for tours, it was up…
