Gaff Gathering

Cat boats are a big deal on the Cape. I got to photograph a cat boat sailing event. It was a gorgeous day out and all the cat boats and sails looked amazing against the blue sky and water. I took a lot of photos and cropped a few of them down to long strips with a bit of sky, boats and some water. My editor encouraged me to crop more than I'm used to. Hope you guys enjoy.

Peace. Love. Happiness.

Boston

This past weekend I finally made it to see my oldest and one of my best friends, Wendy DeBaptiste. I even lucked out and got lunch with a high school buddy of mine, Emily Miller. Boston is a great city and I had not been there since I was a very little girl so it was exciting to be there as a 22-yeaar-old. Newbury Ave. was to die for and we had tons of great food and even some amazing cupcakes! I have been bad about updating my blog, but it always seems like I am too busy or too exhausted to do so. Anyway, here are a few pics from the weekend.

P.S. THANK YOU TO WENDY FOR LETTING ME STAY WITH HER AND FOR EMILY FOR THE DIRECTIONS TO THE AIRPORT!!!

Beautiful sunset, cute kids and very pretty fireworks -- colorful lights in the sky.

Here are just a handful of my favorites.

Enjoy.

Peace. Love. Happiness.

Bubbles and Water guns: Jackson and Megan

The couple I am living with while doing my internship at the Cape Cod Times are possibly some of the nicest people I have ever met. Jude and Michael Williams are funny, smart and full of life. While they have many passions and hobbies, nothing compares to their love of being grandparents. As I go into my second week here, I have met the Williams' daughter and her adorable two children, Jackson and Megan. Jackson and Megan love their "Yummy and Papa" and are frequent visitors to the house. As many of you well know, I adore kids, especially ones that are this sweet and funny. Jackson is 5, going on 6, and Megan just turned 4. Jackson is the more sensitive one, but he is no push over; all boy and full of mischief. Megan only likes to wear dresses, however, she is a tough cookie and going to be quite a handful when she get into her teens. I have only spent time with Jackson and Megan twice, the day I moved in and this Sunday, but I can tell already that these two are going to be part of a lot of my memories this summer. Here are a bunch of pictures from today, which, by the way, was a gorgeous day. Enjoy!

Peace. Love. Happiness.
