This cool store sells all sorts of interesting odds and ends. It is located in Newburyport, MA right next to this walkway photo that I posted a couple of weeks ago.

I took this photo from inside a gift shop overlooking Rockport Harbor. Its easier to see the details in this photo when you click on the image to make it larger.

A few weeks ago I went to Rockport, MA for the first time. I definitely will be going back as I found it a really charming New England harbor town!

Well its the week of July 4th and here in MA it has been one of the rainiest and coldest Junes I can remember! I thought this photo was appropriate considering the dreary weather.

I don’t really know if this is a church or what but I really liked the look of this old steeple. This was taken in Brockton, MA right before a huge thunderstorm Memorial Day weekend. It is located right across the street from Cape Cod Pizza which is where we had just had lunch before. Also if you are ever in that area and looking for great pizza I highly recommend Cape Cod Pizza (oh and their famous Greek Salads are awesome too!)

This dog, that I assume belonged to the owner of this small store, was watching intently as each person walked by or came into the store to browse for souvenirs.

Sorry I have not been posting or visiting your blogs the last couple of days. I went to my brother’s house for Easter and did not have time to post new photos. Hope you all had a good Easter! I am taking a break from Nubble Lighthouse photos for a bit but will post some more soon. For now here is another shot of Salem Willows in Salem MA. This was taken in March and this street with arcades and food stands that is usually mobbed in the summer was like a ghost town.

I am not sure what these old looking buildings are in Plymouth. There are right near Plymouth rock so I assume they must be some sort of recreation of some old fashioned buildings? Anyways there was a big ugly red wastebasket that was between the two buildings so it took a little while to find an angle to shot this at that did not show the basket. But as you can see I eventually did find an angle that worked!

On the way back from Boston there was a great sunset. This was taken from the car window on the highway while we were driving (and no I was not the driver!)

I took this photo right after taking the photo I posted last time of the skyline of Boston. As I was getting ready to leave the rooftop location where I took that photo I saw the full moon barely visible in the afternoon brightness just coming into view above these factories. I decided to convert the photo to black and white becuase it was really hard to see the barely visible moon against the bright blue sky in the color version.

Here is a photo I took last weekend of the John Hancock Tower in Boston, MA. According to Wikipedia The John Hancock Tower is the tallest building in Boston and in fact the tallest building in all of New England.

During the Ice Storm I was able to take this photo of a church covered with ice. There was so much ice it almost looked like a Christmas decoration! The ice even gave off a strange blueish glow as if a light was on inside the church.
Ok ok it is a Christmas decoration but I thought it would be a funny transition from the ice storm photos

Here is a photo looking through the window of an old lodge that is next to this pond at borderland state park. I spent a long time trying to decide whether this photo looked better in color or black and white. I would process it in b&w then undo then process and I could not decide which was better so I have decided to post both versions and let you guys tell me which is better! Today I will post this color version and tomorrow the black and white version.
