September
4, 2007 ~ Tuesday ~ another sunny clear day....working on updating
my prints of
birds in the gift gallery section of this website....I have much
to do!
Speaking
of birds, this plover paused
for a moment while I was walking
this evening.
To my surprise, I saw someone I hadn't seen
in many years who used to visit our gallery
with his family. He was taking a walk tomight
on the beach with Maris.
September
5, 2007 ~ Wednesday ~ another sunny clear day on the cool side
so I bicycled to town.
I'm late with posting this for I got carried away with working
on the Prints of Birds section of this website
late last night and it turned into the next day...
While taking
an evening walk just before sunset
it appeared that small glass beads had washed
up on the shore.
The jellyfish
are here!
September
6, 2007 ~ Thursday ~ sunny and coolish so I ride again on my
bike...
The sun shines
on Polly highlighting her
beautiful green eyes.
Tonight the sea
dark and gray and rough. A sailboat
struggles to return but does make it.
September
7, 2007 ~ Friday ~ sunny, hot and humid...spend the day working
on this website...in the gift gallery ...prints of Animals
Brody is sleeping behind me all
day as I
work at the computer.
A calm night for a walk....
September
8, 2007 ~ Saturday ~ It's a special day....
On this day in 1979, David and I were living in
Connecticut and just about to drive up to Maine to look for a
place to live
when the phone rang.....my sister had just given birth to a baby
boy.... we
postponed our trip and met our wonderful nephew, Max.
Weatherwise, it was very hot and humid....90's and even felt
hotter at night!
September
9, 2007 ~ Sunday... cloudy with drizzle and cooler temperatures
in the 60's
Climbing
up the front steps the sight of the apples that
Dave picked and placed beside the nest looked just right!
Spent today working on the prints of Children section of the
Gift Gallery in this website. It's a start and I will be adding
more but at least the structure is there.
September
10, 2007 ~ Monday... a dark damp day and very cool and green...
Polly is
very content to be inside a cozy warm basket today.
Outside it feels like a rain forest...very damp and lush...
September
11, 2007 ~ Tuesday... cool damp and dark in morning with very
heavy rain in the afternoon
and we need the rain!
Before the
rain, I went out to photograph all of our apples that had fallen
from our trees
that Dave gathered and set on top of the old Volvo.
This is just a drop in the bucket!
Last night he made a delcious concoction with some of
these apples.... it was gone by noon today!
When I returned into the house something caught my
eye on my skirt...upon closer inspection I realized
a bumblebee had hitched onto me as I wandered through
the garden.
September
12, 2007 ~ Wednesday... sun, clear, brisk and breezy....a beautiful
fall day...
all of the rain yesterday seems to have brought out baby amphibians
to start a new life.
While walking
through the garden this morning, Dave
almost stepped on this newly hatched baby snapping
turtle trying to find it's way to the brook.
Everyone can use a little kindness and a helping hand
and Dave gave escorted it to the brook to begin it's
new year!
While I was walking over to the studio I almost
stepped on a tiny toad which resembled a brown
leaf in the shadows on the path.
September
13, 2007 ~ Thursday... another sunny clear day...
in the afternoon we drove up to Portland and a truck passed us
on the Maine Turnpike.
Upon closer
inspection, there was something
attached to the back of the truck bobbing up and down
It just made us grin as we followed it along the highway.
September
14, 2007 ~ Friday... sunny once again and pleasant
Polly relaxes
in the morning.....
As I walked
through the porch into the studio, I
didn't notice Ellie May in the giant basket
until I came back out.
The sea was dark and gray blue tonight
but the sky was aglow with pink.
September
15, 2007 ~Saturday... a very dark rainy day til about 3:30 pm.
when the sun appears.
The evening
is so clear as the sun sets.
September
16, 2007 ~Sunday... a sparkling clear cool day
The last
of the roses are still blooming a
pale pink.
While photographing the pink reflection in the sand and sea
a golden retriever bounded into the the ocean for a
jubilant swim on this cool evening.
September
17, 2007 ~Monday... a beautiful sunny clear day once again
Polly is
totally relaxed with the warmth of the sun on
her face as we have a wonderful lunch with our
dear friends from Rochester, NY.
The orchids that Dave rescued and adopted look so
expressive and elegant.
September
18, 2007 ~Tuesday... a clear cold morning full of sunshine that
lasts the entire day...
Was so beautiful
today, my bicycle ride just kept going past the Post Office to
my favorite spot where the river meets the sea behind our old
gallery space at
the former Schooner's Inn building. So peaceful.... actually
saw fish jumping
out of the water in the river.
September
19, 2007 ~Wednesday... it is another beautiful sunny clear coolish
day
Brody settled
himself into David's chair this morning
waiting for Miss Polly to stroll by.
The last of the roses sat in a tiny vase on
our front steps in the sun attracting the
bumblebees.
September
20, 2007 ~Thursday... the sun shines with blue skies and a bit
more warmth
Part of me
would rather keep to look at
than cook the beautiful eggplants that
David had brought home from the market.
A quick ride
tonight caught the moon
sparkling on the sea....it was very
subtle and may not be visible in this
photo.
September
21, 2007 ~Friday... More sunshine and it's definitely warmer
today
bringing the tiny ants in the brick path out.
Couldn't
find Brody early this morning....when suddenly
I spotted the tip of his tail poking out from a curtain
and then 2 paws.
These may resemble apples, but they are
actually Asian pears that David planted
years ago and this year they are abundant.
September
22, 2007 ~ Saturday... Overcast and in the early evening the
sun plays
hide and seek beneath a thin layer of clouds
The veiled
sun cast a soft glow this evening.
Chicory is
blooming along the ocean.
A hint of autumn stands out along the subdued shades in the rocks
tonight.
September
23, 2007 ~ Sunday... a clear warm day
The sky was
so sparkling clear tonight as the sun set and just before sunset
we saw 3 adorable dogs coming towards us on the beach...they
were Norwich terriers.
