Return to Bedlam Farm Part 3: an Exhausting Afternoon
So fellow travelers, I am about to discover the Cambridge spirit of generosity author Jon Katz often writes about in his blog. When I pulled the very noisy loaner car into the parking lot I knew what I found would not be good. As suspected I saw an exhaust pipe hanging loose. I shook off […]

Return to Bedlam Farm Part 2: the Evolution of Experience
So fellow travelers, a new day brings new perspectives. I woke to the cheery serenade of a song sparrow perched in the grape vines which festooned the windows off the back porch.

Moments in time
So fellow travelers, bit of a postscript to the Yaddo post…. When I am out and about shooting with my dslr camera, images capture my attention for various reasons.

Yaddo
So fellow travelers, I am looking through my files from this weekend’s adventure. Last month during our lunch at the RoundHouse the idea of a day trip to Yaddo Gardens in Saratoga Springs came up.
