Green Animals

Love a good lush shrub and don't even get me started with topiaries...Had such a blast meandering around Green Animals Topiary Garden in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. My Mother used to volunteer there when I was a bebe, and my elementary/middle school is just across the way. Fun day of exploration & reminiscing.  

No Trespassing

I ignored the signs last evening on my bike ride and well, trespassed to discover this construction site at the very end of a road around the corner in Jamestown. The home appears to be a renovation from a historic residential structure that is well positioned to be a charming seaside home over looking Narragansett Bay.

Rose of Sharon

Loving being back at home in Jamestown. I just returned from a morning bike ride and swim in the ocean. I've noticed how our neighborhood boasts of these beautiful bushes of Rose of Sharon. They resemble a hibiscus flower and come in a variety of shades. Above, is a shrub in our yard I was admiring while eating breakfast. My Mother brought this shrub back to life when we moved into our new home. And now, I am off to rinse the sand off my feet before my Mother squawks at me again...xx

Perspective in Florence

My cousin sent me a few photographs yesterday amidst his late summer trip to Florence. They were of beautiful ornate doors around the city in addition to this view. They reached me during a rather frantic moment at work and they truly made my day. It's all about the little things. Thanks, Greg and can't wait to see you! xx
