In case you missed my post with the wonderful pumpkins I saw at the New York Botanical Gardens, here they are again Pumpkins
I visited my Aunt today. She is 91,though you would never know it- she is a powerhouse full of energy and life. She moves fast, talks fast and always has a positive attitude. She always tells me “you have to keep going- no matter what life throws at you.” The other thing she always tells […]
I love taking photos from the car, not when I’m the driver I will add. In the Sun In the Rain In Traffic On a bridge at sunset What are the odds of seeing 2 Google Street View cars within 2 months of each other on 2 different highways? From The Car

Becky has designated Pink for September Squares. Here are some ideas she offers for pink ‘In the Pink’ – means perfect condition or in good health, so that could be human or not! ‘Tickled Pink‘ – means delighted, so I’m thinking happy, fun and of course delighted. That could be you or the subject of your […]
Melanie has taken over Share Your World from Cee, here are her questions this week: Are You A Better Listener or Speaker? Definitely listener. I am not a public speaker at all, I become tongue tied. I volunteered for many years in hospitals visiting patients, and listening was what it was all about. Listening entails […]

This is a post I wrote a few years ago, but feel the need to post it once again today, on the anniversary of 9/11 September 11th holds unforgettable meaning for those of us living in the United States. I live 10 minutes from New York City, making the World Trade Center- the Twin Towers, […]

Well I made it through the first day of school. First day, new school, new teachers, none of whom I know. I stood in the gym watching as students arrived, the third graders that I would meet officially that morning in the classroom. I watched some of them come in and run over to their […]
First day of school today, in a new school, in a new grade. After a week of orientation last week I sort of know my way around the building, but the daily schedule is still something of a mystery. Can an old dog be taught new tricks? I hope so… change is not an oft […]
Paula has asked us to share some traces of the past this week for Thursday’s Special. Last week my husband and I went into NYC to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It is an enormous museum, but we decided to focus on the galleries that held the European Paintings. We saw paintings by Van Gogh, […]
This seagull spent the whole day next to my chair keeping me company. I had thrown some bread out for all of the gulls, but after it was gone they all flew off. He hung out next to me all day. Quite unexpected. Unexpected

I spotted this young Mockingbird who seemed to be looking for mom, peeping and peeping endlessly. Are you down there? I’ve got an itch, maybe my ears need to be cleaned out so I can hear you calling me Well I’m off to find her…
I saw so many wonderful shore birds at the Ocean this week I wanted to share them with you. Here’s an Oyster Catcher. They seem to always travel in pairs. I think the one in behind in the video might be a baby. These are Laughing Gulls This is a Stilt Sandpiper. I had never […]
Everyday moments for me include things in nature. Either sitting at a beautiful park and taking in the surrounds, or along my daily walk. Summer means everyday moments at the beach, always with an iced coffee. Everyday Moments
I learned to play the guitar when I was 13, a friend sat down with me and taught me a few basic chords, how to strum and pick, and I was off from there. In High School my BFF Alice and I tried our hand at “collaborating”- she wrote lyrics, then I added music. We called […]
Neighbor… Oh how I long for the days when I had good neighbors. I am surrounded by neighbors who have cut the branches off my trees that hang over their property- hundreds of feet in the air mind you, but they insist they will ruin their roof(no where near their roof) or their dogs, the […]
On my morning run, the train was passing as I was about to enter the underpass. Come along with me. I grew up across the street from this underpass, and we were loathe to have to use it. It was damp and dank and stunk, often littered with empty liquor bottles. They have cleaned it […]
Montauk, New York, is a village at the east end of the Long Island, New York peninsula. It’s known for its beaches, and years ago was a simple village, but over the years has grown to be a “go to” destination like Hamptons, becoming very upscale and trendy, losing that small fishing village feeling. At […]
I’ll admit it, I love taking selfies. Not of myself necessarily, but of me and whoever, or if I am somewhere by myself it can be more interesting to have a person in the photo rather than just a photo of whatever. Like last week when I went into NYC by myself and was enjoying […]
