Mea Culpa

I've been remiss with blogging and commenting on my blogfriend's entries. Life has been busy. Just wanted you to know you are thought of .... will return shortly!

ABC Wednesday: H is for Hole

as in Woods Hole. This was taken on a foggy autumn day. Can't you tell? Woods Hole is actually part of the Falmouth, a town on Cape Cod. As most of you know, I spend a great amount of summertime on the Cape. Woods Hole is a biking and running destination for most of my family on early weekend mornings. Home of the Oceanographic Institute, and port for the ferry to the islands of Nantucket and the Vineyard, Woods Hole can get cramped with traffic. It's only a small village tucked against the Sound.

ABC Wednesday: G is for Garden

Here are some flowers from my garden - years past. Can't wait to get my fingers dirty again soon....Peonies are a family favorite.

PhotoHunt; Loud

A New York Street vendor. Actually the sound of his reed instrument was quite soothing, but he was playing it through a very loud microphone system!

ABC Wednesday: F is for Fans

Ahh, to be a college student again~

PhotoHunt; Point

Staying in Florence (*sigh*), here's the point at the top of the Tower. Sure it's some sort of communication tower. But I love the cupola on top of the Duomo. Hard to believe it's been almost two years since we were last there.

PhotoHunt: Heart

Well, it has to be the anthurium! These plants were imported from Hawaii (most of Hawaii's plants are imported) from England in the 1800's. Over the ages, it has come to represent 'hospitality' due to its heart shape. The anthurium have been cultivated so that there are now many varieties and colors, although it typically has a bold red flower.

Happy Valentine's Day!
