Enjoying the Hudson River

Living in small cities and towns along the Hudson River,
we're constantly reminded of it's ever changing beauty. Morning
to evening, day to day and season to season it never fails to 
intrigue and delight. However, the warm months allow me
to get close access to the shoreline as some access roads are
closed during the icy months. So a few times a week we
are spending delightful time there with our little grandson.


 He (and we) love to investigate the shore line to find what curiosity
 has appeared at low tide.


 
River glass and interesting stones seem to be the most intriguing.






 
A small family of Canadian Geese, so lovely to look at, but messy things......




 
The little man is getting really good at skipping stones!





 
If I lived in this house I would probably never move from the veranda!





 
I just have to be content with sitting here occasionally.....gorgeous isn't it?

Inspiration

"Fear less, hope more,
Eat less, chew more,
Whine less, breathe more,
Talk less, say more
Hate less, love more,
and all good things are yours."
Swedish Proverb

I love this proverb, I have it posted over my desk.
The sailboat pic was taken one sunday during the summer
when my husband and I took a walk along the Hudson River,
with our dog Rocky.

Trip to Washington DC and the Butterfly Garden



























It was a very hot time to be in DC but we made the best of it! On Tuesdays at the Museum of Natural History the Butterfly Garden is free. They love visitors and will hitch a ride with you through the garden. I am going to do an exhibit in the fall entitled 'Butterflies' and this gave me lots of inspiration!
