Simply Daubing

While sitting quietly in Stage Fort Park a faint noise
in the brush alerted me that I was no longer alone.

What could he be doing?

Aha!

A little daub here, a little daub there ...

Simply Lonely

Thanksgiving Day at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester.


One Lonely Afternoon
Written by Russell Edson

Since the fern can't go to the sink for a drink of
water, I graciously submit myself to the task, bringing two
glasses from the sink.
And so we sit, the fern and I, sipping water together.

Of course I'm more complex than a fern, full of deep
thoughts as I am. But I lay this aside for the easy company
of an afternoon friendship.

I don't mind sipping water with a fern, even though,
had I my druthers, I'd be speeding through the sky for
Stockholm, sipping a bloody mary with a wedge of lime.

And so we sit one lonely afternoon sipping water
together. The fern looking out of its fronds, and I, looking
out of mine . . .

Simply Grateful

Nothing like a walk (or a surf!) on Good Harbor Beach to take the stress out of preparing a Thanksgiving Feast.

It is very difficult not to take a real look around and be grateful for the beauty of Cape Ann and its community.

Simply Grateful!
