Mom said that she and Dad went down to check out the cygnets yesterday and only saw two of them, with the mother and father swan. I’m afraid…
Thankfully, I get a tax return each year. With this year’s return I invested in a nice piece of glass (lens) for my camera. I still want to…
For this year’s Mother’s Day card I used the bottom image to put on the front of the card. Mom always likes it when I make her a…

I’m assuming these are students from either Mass Art or the School of the Museum of Fine Arts (or one of the other colleges in the area). I’d…
There are many times when I wish I was able to draw. And, not even still life, I think drawing animations would be so cool. I know a…
No more swan photos this week. Maybe this weekend they’ll be some cygnets hatching and I can get a shot. For today we have a Boston squirrel. The…
This swan is not part of the mother and father swans that I’ve been posting this week. This one was down at the Jenney Grist Mill. I believe…

I just thought this garden was so quaint and inviting. Really wish I was able to get inside the fence and sit by the shed. Although, the past…
Last Wednesday after work I planned on walking from the Fenway area to South Station (takes about an hour) so I could take photos of the beauty of…
What a long strange week it’s been. Monday started with a bombing and Friday culminated with the capture of the suspects. Early Friday morning (around 6am) they shut…
Ahh yes, along with the warmer weather comes the Shirts vs Skins team identification. I always wonder who decides which team is skins and which is shirts. Preferably,…
Yesterday, was a beautiful day in the city. After Monday’s tragedy it seemed that everyone was outdoors enjoying the simple pleasures in life. This park is across the…
Yesterday’s commute to work was very somber. I debated on whether to call in sick/work from home so I wouldn’t have to travel into Boston but then I…

It’s Patriot’s Day today and I have the day off. There’s a lot going on in Boston today (Boston Marathon and Red Sox game) so it’s nice not…
I’ve showed these stumps before on the blog (you can read see the photo here and also read the story about it). They are the remains of an…
