At the 305th birthday tea celebration for the town of Plympton, Deborah Sampson made an appearance. The most interesting part I thought was the fact that the person…
While I would have loved to pop a handful of these treats into my mouth, I only took one strawberry dipped in chocolate. My first week of trying…
Three days after I started my healthy eating (for the month of June and hopefully beyond) I went to a tea party for Plympton’s 305th birthday. They had…
I enjoy a good hearty breakfast. A little fruit for something sweet, an organic egg, and some chicken sausages (range free, no antibiotics, etc.) do the trick. It’s also…
I had high hopes for this black raspberry sauce but it didn’t taste up to my expectations. I crushed up fresh black raspberries, added some orange juice and…
Once Memorial Day is over it’s always a reminder that summer is only a few weeks away and that I need to lose the winter fat. So, on…
No, I didn’t plant a golf ball or Photoshop anything into the top photo! I was actually lucky enough to catch this turtle laying her eggs. I discovered…

I got a few shots of this boat before the owner took it out to sea. Too bad he wasn’t coming in with a load of lobsters. I’m…

Happy Birthday to my nephew, Josh! I can’t believe this is your last year as a teenager!! Also, thoughts and prayers to all the service men, women and their…
I wasn’t the only one who couldn’t get enough of the baby goats. This is my friend’s little girl and she just fell in love with them. She…
OMG, these baby goats were just the cutest! They really are like little kids. Notice we threw all kids into the pen! I really wish the top photo…
Last weekend I went to the Plympton Garden Club Plant Sale. I wasn’t going there to buy plants but to look at the animals. I’m not very good…
This beautiful flowering plant is also in my brother’s back yard. It’s a gorgeous centerpiece to their garden.
Just last week I was talking with my parents and brother about lady slippers and how I haven’t seen any since I was a kid. Yesterday I was…
This is Marina Bay in Quincy. It looks across to Boston. A few weeks ago I stopped at Marina Bay, grabbed a lunch and ate it outside looking…
Yesterday I had a duck on the blog, today I say “goose.” I like how the telephoto lens gave the background a really nice blur. I don’t use…
This was back a few weeks ago when we had really warm weather. I think this duck was looking for a cool spot. I have a friend who…
I hope everyone had a nice Mother’s Day yesterday. I had a great day with Mom (and Dad). Had lunch on the porch with Chris, Karen and my…
We’ll this is it…by this time the supermoon should have been rising over the lighthouse. While it would have been cool to have the moon reflecting in the…
I had hope that the sky might clear but things just seemed to get worse. I definitely was not going to see even a speck of the supermoon….
Another shot of the Scituate area while waiting for the sky to clear and the supermoon to appear.
While I didn’t think I’d see the supermoon I figured I might as try to grab some photos of the landscape. This shot I took from the parking…
Besides Saturday being Cinco de Mayo it was also the night of the supermoon. All day it was cloudy and I figured I wouldn’t be able to see…
I really like this statue. I find it very touching. I didn’t realize there was a drink on the base until I opened up the photo on my…
When I walked down to Fenway Park on opening day I didn’t see any of the ball players but I did get to see the Lucky Strike guy….
This year is the 100th anniversary for the Red Sox. Today is the 25th wedding anniversary for my brother and sister-in-law! I think their names should be hung…
It’s Spring and all the sheep are out. These sheep were closer to the fence but the closer I got the further away they roamed. There were a…
I saw this display yesterday and it made me rather sad. The “I Love You” heart and cheerful smile on Raggedy Ann’s face and then the dingy green…
You get a pretty nice view of the city from this hill. It’s always interesting to see the city from a different angle. Sometimes the buildings look spread…
From Chappel Rock I had a good view of the Boston Gas Tank (actually located in Dorchester). This is a very well know landmark in Boston and one…
I was hoping to be able to drive out on Moon Island Road (I had seen it on a map). However, when I got to the road it…
Whle lots of flowers and trees are blooming many things are also quickly passing by. Last week I saw these beautiful tulips in front of the Northeastern University…
