Kim Smith Reminder
A full schedule is planned this week–fall plantings, the premiere of The Butterfly Garden at Willow, and my lecture in New Hampshire. Rather than cooking half the night away Wednesday evening, I planned ahead and spent the weekend making lots of treats for Thursday’s premiere. I hope you can come!!
Thursday morning’s lecture in Amherst, Butterfly Gardening, promises to be a joyful, and informative, program. This summer my Fujifilm x100 gave me many new photos worth including in my lecture series and I couldn’t resist creating an entirely new slide show. I sorted though thousands of new photos over the weekend. And now, to tackle the video footage shot this summer—a daunting task ahead, but one I am sure will be rewarding!
I hope you are warm and cozy and not without power. Sixty-degree temperatures are predicted for the weekend! New England weather—as the adage goes-so very predictably unpredictable!
Warmest wishes, Kim

Shep Abbott Coincidentally Took a Picture Of A Sign Before It Went Missing and Asked Me To Post The Picture of Said Sign For Him
Shep happened to have a picture of a sign he “noticed” before it was removed. He asked me to post it. So here you go.
Shep writes-
I’m attaching a photo of a sign I noticed at Grant Circle which subsequently disappeared. I wonder who might have removed it. Perhaps you’d like to publish the photo with a query as to who might have removed it. Thanks ..
Must have been some no good hippie with nothing better to do because he wasn’t at work.

Chickity Check It!- Marty’s Son Brian Has His Own Photo A Day For 365 Project Going
Brian reminded me yesterday whene he stopped down the dock that I used to refer to Marty as the other guy, having known Brian through his New York Waterblog a full year or two before Marty decided to move here and make all the rest of us look like amateur photographers.
It was two years ago now that I met Marty when he made that fateful trip with Brian to Gloucester for the Dory raffle from Upstate New York and Brooklyn-
