I’ve accepted that the season has changed so we will be changing our store hours as follows: we will try to have the store open Thursday-Saturday 11-5 each week and Sundays 11-3. Unless life gets in the way and then I will try to keep you posted on my Instagram page @patdsphotos So summer/fall hours start this Thursday April 23. In the meantime, here’s an update on nightlights available. Remember you can always reach out and there’s free delivery in the Cape Ann area.
