Hi everyone! It’s Sunday night and I’m just relaxing and reading blogs and facebook and e-mail and thinking about the week ahead. A Facebook friend of mine posted this interesting article a little while ago so I thought you might like it too, especially you history bloggers. I had no idea that the WhiteContinue reading “What the White House Looks Like Completely Gutted – NationalJournal.com”

Need a Smile? Here You Go!
There are so many interesting things to see in Salem and one of my favorites is this mural that was painted last May by artist Kenny Scharf. It’s right across the street from the Visitor Center on the wall of the city’s downtown parking garage. It’s fun and whimsical and it really brightens up thatContinue reading “Need a Smile? Here You Go!”
Thank You All and Some First Photos
Thank you all so much for your kind words over the weekend. It was hard to loose Dino. We spent the weekend talking about our short time with him. I really feel that things happen as their meant to. Sometimes situations come and go in ways that we never expect and the outcomes can beContinue reading “Thank You All and Some First Photos”
Rest in Peace Dear Dino
This morning we woke to find that our sweet little old man had passed away, right next to his very cozy bed by the furnace. I feel blessed to have had him for the two months that we did. We gave him shelter, food and lots of love and attention…the simple things that matter theContinue reading “Rest in Peace Dear Dino”
Scooter Walking By The Ocean
This walkway on the ocean is just a mile away from here, on the border of the city of Lynn and the town of Swampscott. It’s a great place to get out and take a good walk. We’ve been enjoying it lately as it’s one of the few places thats cleared to walk with soContinue reading “Scooter Walking By The Ocean”
Up On The Rooftop
I spent some time on Houzz this morning poking around and looking at beautiful rooftop gardens. The caption for each is right under the photo. There just might be a rooftop garden (or two) in my immediate future~ Enjoy!
A Little Bit of Ice Sculpture
I love, love, love ice sculpture and this weekend is the Salem So Sweets ice sculpture event. It was originally scheduled for last week but it was postponed due to the blizzard. It’s hard to believe that that was a week ago already. Where did the week go? There are sixteen sculptures this year. IContinue reading “A Little Bit of Ice Sculpture”
The experience of visiting Holland when the tulips are blooming sits at the top of my bucket list, along with visiting the Anne Frank museum… some day I just have to get there! In the meantime I’m enjoying this beautiful post by Michael at Florafocus. Michael’s blogs from a global gardening and design perspective andContinue reading
One Last “Nemo In Salem” Post
Michael took a little ride yesterday, dropping people off and picking them up while I took care of things at home. I didn’t leave my house for three full days over the weekend. There were two blizzard days with the driving ban, my little guy was sick yesterday, and it was just so nice toContinue reading “One Last “Nemo In Salem” Post”
