Kate Wiggin’s Art Work!

Last summer Kate Wiggin, Wall St. resident and landscaper, created this amazing project. The snow really brings out the design. Nice work, Kate!

So if you are motivated, I hope this list helps you with your chores! 🙂

By the way, I’m starting the 365 Project where you post a photo everyday for 2011. If you took a picture yesterday, you can get started too! I was going to do this on my own, but I think doing the Project will keep me motivated. Here is yesterday’s post Chilly Jump on 365 Project

Click in the photo and it will take you to the project. Let me know if you are going to do it!  —Sharon

She only looks innocent….

She’s truly a feline warrior. Livvy’s 11, but acts like a kitten. She destroys everything in her path opening wrapped gifts and dumping the paper recycling bucket. She is a character!

Reminder: If you haven’t been yet, my photos are on display at the Sawyer Free Library for the next couple of days. And the calendars are still available online or by contacting me. Thanks so much! —-Sharon

Rocky Neck New Years Day Plunge 2010

Ok!  When I hang out at the Dock on Sunday Mornings Joey and I usually Talk on how to make the Blog better, get more “Exposure”, and add great content.

So Here’s my Idea. Joey always wants someone to create great content. Just ask Ed Collard who almost lost his life during the Corn Dog Challenge. Or ask Sharon Lowe who spent time Traveling on the Spirit of Massachusetts Schooner. Joey always seems use the excuse that he’s too busy down at the Dock to participate in these events. But! now it’s time for Joey to show he has some Balls.

It’s time for him to take the Plunge! The Rocky Neck New Years Day Plunge, That is. Can or will he do it?

Please show your support and vote Yes in this Plunge Poll. I’m sure he’ll try to talk some of the other Authors in joining him.

VOTE TODAY! and leave some comment encouraging Joey to take the Plunge!

“Cycle del Sol” – at Sawyer Free

“Cycle del Sol” is one of my images on exhibit at the Sawyer Free Library. The photo was taken several years ago in Magnolia. There was a tiny shop next to the pizza place and every time I passed it, the bicycle resting against the wall shouted out to be photographed. I complied and this was the result.

Go see my photos at the library!

From now until the end of December, my photography is on exhibit in the Adolph I. Matz Art Gallery at the entrance of the Sawyer Free Library. The exhibit includes local scenes capturing the weather, light, and beauty of Cape Ann. Please stop by. Thank you!    —-Sharon
