The bench

Aunt Carolyn and I have been envisioning a series of bench of photographs since we discovered a similar collection of photos in a magazine several years ago. When we spotted an ordinary bench on our aunt outing earlier this week we realized the time was right. Photo credits: Carolyn.

Circles

Framed

Libby and I went to lunch with Aunt Carolyn at Daddy-O's downtown yesterday afternoon. After finishing my Sock Hop sandwich and unsweetened iced tea we headed for the streets for a photo shoot. Aunt Carolyn asked to try my camera and I found myself in the awkward position of being on the other side of my camera. Photos by Carolyn, Amy and Libby.

Not every pose is meant to be.

Just for the record, I'm making a frame with my fingers.

Riverdays

Usually I am at the blueberry farm on Saturday morning during Riverdays Celebration. I decided to take advantage of my last Saturday morning before the farm opens and I headed downtown. It was a cool morning and most of the actors sat around smokey fires. The fife and drum corps performed on the lawn while vendors prepared to hawk their items. On the other side of the river, Julie and Brian sold blueberries at the Farmers' Market. Red-coated soldiers, mothers with strollers, and elderly folks with walkers jostled with each other as they moved around the circle and purchased cherries or cinnamon rolls or bouquets of sunflowers.
