New England Antiques Leave a comment
A late afternoon drive around our town revealed you don’t have to go to an antique store to find antiques.
I’m sure this snow plow hasn’t seen any action for years.
And the antique store has turned into an antique….

A barrel of monkeys in Costa Rica Leave a comment

Red Spring 1 comment
While not everything is blooming yet, the red barn and the red door on a cottage in our neighborhood are adding a nice splash of color to the surroundings. Soon they’ll have competition from the spring flowers.

Americus, Georgia Leave a comment
Took a few shots on the main thoroughfare of Americus, GA, a small town 100 miles south of Atlanta, on a recent business trip there. Here’s the Windsor Hotel, a Victorian landmark:
The three-story lobby is gorgeous.

Despite warmer-than-normal temperatures, I wish the trees wouldn’t look so desolate. Can’t wait for green leaves!
