A few more photos

I'm on a roll, so I thought I'd add a few more of my favorite photos.

This is a ceramic/cement angel my Mom has had in her gardens over the years. I manipulated the image a bit. Don't ask me what setting I used, I can't remember..

This is a cottage in Founders Landing, which is in Southold, NY. My Mom was still "putzing" around at a yard sale down the street and I went for a walk. I passed this cottage twice before I dared stop and take a picture of it. It is only a few hundred yards from the Founders Landing beach. (I forgot I could Google Map places I've been and add them to my blog.. oh well.. live and learn, even at my age)

I see this lighthouse every time I visit my Mom. I take the Cross Sound Ferry from New London to Orient Point. In the map image above the lighthouse is located at the very end.

I bought a pot of yellow tulips at Mahoney's Greenhouse in Winchester MA around Easter in 2008. I waited a few days until they bloomed and was lucky enough to be walking through my dining room one sunny Sunday afternoon, and the light was just right.

Yellow hibiscus I used to have on my back porch. The back porch is enclosed and in the summer gets very very hot.. and I accidentaly "cooked" it last summer. I guess from now on I should keep one in my dining room, as I only go out to the back porch to change the cat box or do laundry and tend to forget to water the plants out there. Hence.. no plants out there now.
