This year's Outdoor Sculpture at Maudslay opened on Sunday. When I realized the sculptors would be setting up their work the day before I decided to head to Maudslay for a preview on Saturday.
While most of the sculptures were in place there were a few with only signs. I will return!
A late afternoon walk in Harold Parker State Forest last Friday allowed me to enjoy reflections in Field Pond.
Trees, blue sky, and white clouds painted a wonderful picture.
Found in a garden, a Strawberry Blonde sunflower...
It's amazing how many different varieties of sunflowers exist. I find I like them all!
Sunflowers bloom during the summer but somehow they say autumn to me.
This beauty is in a community garden in Portsmouth, NH.
A solo dahlia in shades of orange caught my eye today as I wandered through the gardens of Prescott Park in Portsmouth, NH.
I headed into Boston Monday afternoon to visit The Great Elephant Migration. I considered visiting on Saturday but quickly realized that I didn't really want to drive and that the commuter rail doesn't run as frequently as I'd like on the weekends. Monday was a good choice for me. It was a train, walk, visit the elephants, walk, train day.
The 100 life-sized elephants are made of an invasive plant called Lantana camara by artisans in Southern India. Each is inspired by a live elephant. There were many other people there with me, all fascinated by and enjoying the sight of elephants on Commonwealth Avenue.
