Thursday Challenge — "technology"

I'm all for technology—but this doesn't make for the nicest 

view (of daughter Kate's neighbor's terrace). 

Perhaps the folks who live here watch TV for a living!

abc wednesday - K is for "kitsch"

I took this picture in Red Hook, Brooklyn.  If I lived in this house with the

picture window right on the sidewalk, I'd probably preserve my privacy

with a curtain of lush plants.  These homeowners have opted to share their

Betty Boop collection—which is entertaining if a bit bizarre.

That's My World Tuesday

Patrick Dougherty created this nifty sculpture 
in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden with 6 tons of sticks. 
Here's what he has to say about it.

Mellow Yellow Monday

Not that much time left when we

can still find fresh flowers at the

greenmarket—so I'm going to

enjoy them while I can!

Shadow Shot Sunday

The twins—Toler and Banks—have just

discovered our fave thing: shadows!

If they turned around they'd see their

own, but meanwhile their moms'

(my friends Katharine—who took this

shot—and Katherine, aka

Ka-THAR-ine and Ka-THER-ine)

will do.

photo Hunt — "natural"

My favorite wildflower: lily of the valley—

maybe sometime you'll be in Paris on

May Day and someone special will give

you a "brin de muguet" (i.e., a sprig of

this delicate spring blossom).

Skywatch Friday

A party on the beach on Shelter Island

(where yesterday's post was from too)—

friends and family, good music, and a

beautiful sunset to boot! Life is good.
