Day 86 – I have this wonderful paperweight that is fashioned from an old design used on sailing vessels to bring light to lower decks. Just a little adjusting in Lightroom for fun.

2012 Snow Sculpting Competition
2012 Snow Sculpting Competition
Day 74 – I went to check out the snow sculpting competition today. The judges will see the final works tomorrow so everyone was busy trying to finish up. The place was a buzz with the sounds of chisels and shovels, kids laughing, music playing. It was cold and crisp today and the wood burning in barrels to keep the folks warm was a lovely smell. I’ll try to get back there tomorrow. I always like to see who won.

Day 72 – Still trying to figure out Lightroom on the Mac. The program is so powerful and can give me so much freedom to adjust my photos. Now if I can just learn how to properly size them for the blog.

Day 64 – December 7, 1941 – “…a day that will live in infamy…” FDR.
This statue is part of a larger display memorializing the other major conflicts America has been in. Someone had left the rose in her hand. I thought that it was worth remembering all the women who serve in wartime and the sacrifices they made.
