New Beginning and Newburyport Frog Pond


AOL has notified us they are closing down their Journals, November 1st, 2008. Sad but we will continue on, most will be moving here, our new blogging home. Allow me time to adjust and learn posting. Any suggestions or ideas please write me.


My journal started out posting what my day was like and interests and eventually became a photo journal as my hobby of photography grew.


My photo group visted Newburyport, MA. The walking tour took us to this beautiful place, Frog Pond.

On our weekend ride, we found a community garden on one of the side roads in Tamworth, NH. The community grows vegetables, flowers, sharing both in maintenance and rewards of the gardens.   For me it was a photo opportunity :).

Sugar Maple At Shaker Village

Sugar Maple at Shaker Village.  I love the texture of the bark and think about the history of the old tree must have seen over the years.  I wonder how many young children climbed, sat under the old tree.
