A Fierce Sky
What is it about the sky, the clouds and the sun that intrigue? I was called out into the field to take a few shots. Well worth it.
Farm House-Aroostook County
This was a drive-by shot. My husband once in the car wants to go, go, go. So...I take my shots when I can zooming by in a fast moving vehicle. This again is among my favorites. The house standing alone in an expansive field....and that ominous sky sets a tone.
A Man and His Dog
This image was taken in Fort Kent Maine overlooking the river and into Canada. Our passports need renewal so Canada looked a LONG way off! This photo is among my favorites of the summer.
Rickie Lee Jones
Trip 2: Summer of 2011....Freeport Maine. LL Bean....Free concert series on the green. Good friends...Mary and Al and the wonderful jazz of Rickie Lee Jones and her amazing band. The posted image depicts the warm-up.
Travels Downeast
The highlight of this trip involved a little boy at play. As we drove along in our little car, he interrupted his play with a friend and yelled, "I like you's car!" This was our first road trip in our little car: Eastport, Maine. The location was chosen so we could partake of the festivities that come with visiting Raye's Mustard on National Mustard Day. My palate was loaded with sensations, while Jerry simply browsed the shop. His dislike of vinegar has limited his experiences!
A First: Horseback Riding Lesson
For years, I have been trying to talk a wee girl into riding horses. Finally, finally she thought she would like to try it out. And try it out she did. My friend Jenny, who so graciously offered to teach her to ride said that she's a natural. It makes a Mumma happy when her children discover a passion. It is that passion that will feed us and sustain us through this journey of life.

Easter Prep
We have an Easter tradition to pack up muffins, hard boiled eggs, cheese and hot drinks for a hike. Once to our destination, we offer prayers for renewal....
CRAZY CRAZE!
I am currently grateful for the beauty that my two orchids are providing me on a daily basis. This is an image of the second one I bought a few days following the first purchase. Yesterday, I went to the store to pick up a third, but alas they were ALL gone.

Mumma Kitty
This sweet petite kitty is fondly referred to as Mumma Kitty....she was abandoned in the gravel pit and was pregnant when we brought her home. She gave birth to Harry one of the most beautiful cats I have ever seen. Long, sleek and elegant with a chiseled face....oh, wait this post in about Mumma, not Harry. Her meow is a squeak...a petite squeak for a wee cat.
Orchid
For years I have looked and looked and oooo'd and ahh'd over orchids. And finally, I decided to take one home. I am determined to be a good tender of this beauty. Yes, isn't it a BEAUT?! Wish me luck.
