Friday morning, I walked down First Street on my way to get coffee. There were pretty flowering trees all lit up in the morning sunlight. I didn’t have my camera with me so I promised myself I would come back…

More Garden
These are from a visit to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden over Easter weekend (yes, I went again and I plan to go frequently). I meant to edit and post these pictures last week but ran out of energy for it.…
Brooklyn Botanical Garden
I love that place. It’s close and it isn’t huge which makes it perfect for me to visit while the kids are in school. And there’s almost always something I want to take pictures of. So I got a family…

Coconut Frog Mask
We went to Puerto Rico last Summer and our first few days were spent in old San Juan. We walked by this tourist shop that had those vejigante masks. It was closed but I spotted one that was different from…
