Icelandic Shore

Wollaston Yacht Club is still iced in this winter.

Travel Tuesday: Randolph, Massachusetts

There are not too many farms left in the Boston area.  All this scene needs is the horse and sleigh!

Umm . . .

I couldn't resist playing around with this image I saw through the raindrops of my car windshield.  Happy Monochrome Monday!

Cold Seat

Bring your "bun warmers" for these Pageant Field bleachers.

Cotton Ball Sky

The sun was shining but not melting much ice on Blacks Creek.  Happy Skywatch Friday!

Thursday is "This Old House" Day

I like red houses in the snow!  The granite stonework is what caught my eye on this house that was built in 1910 and is located on Acton Street in the Wollaston area.

Walking The Icy Line

The tide is receding on Wollaston Beach looking south towards Adams Shore and Houghs Neck. 

Travel Tuesday: New York City

I like the cobalt blue color of the early evening sky near Rockefeller Center.

Stone Temple

The "Stone Library" of John Quincy Adams is considered by some to be the first Presidential Library. This building was constructed with granite from local quarries and holds more than 14,000 volumes.

Embossed In Snow

The statues of Abigail and John Quincy Adams took a pasting from the recent snowstorm.  Here they are on a warmer day in springtime!

♥♥♥ Post

I ♥ this post . . . literally.  I spotted it on the Squantum Causeway.  Happy Skywatch Friday!

Thursday is "This Old House" Day

This towering Second Empire Mansardic on Prospect Ave continues to undergo meticulous restoration work. 

Quiet Beauty

The Adams Homestead possesses very quiet beauty in the wintertime.

Travel Tuesday: Lincoln, Massachusetts

I like these two photographers having a heart-to-heart at the DeCordova Sculpture Park & Museum.  Her red beret helps to make the picture.

Ice Cakes

I wonder if Thomas Morton walked down from the Maypole on Merrymount Hill to fish, trap or just "make merry" along the banks of Blacks Creek.

Muted Reflection

I like the subtle colors in this image of Blacks Creek. 

Winter Gate

Gate to the Adams Mansion.

Wollybergs

Happy Skywatch Friday from Wollaston Beach!

Thursday Is "This Old House" Day

The tree in front of this turn-of-the-century house at 410 Highland Ave., shows off it's graceful limbs after yesterday's snowfall.

Ice Breaker

Travel Tuesday: Cooperstown, New York

It's spring somewhere on earth!  I like the curve of this fence an how it matches the roof and barn trim. 

Desalinization

Going through the car wash to get rid of road salt before the next round of winter strikes.

Blue Ribbon

I have photographed these two trees at Blacks Creek in different seasons and I think this is my favorite view with the ribbon of water adding some interest. 

Now You See Them . . . Next Week You Won't

The polar vortex has collapsed for the time being. The ice floes will begin their disappearing act soon.
