Every spring, we have a pair of ducks visit our stream for a week or so.
They are the perfect guests, but do like to keep to themselves.

All dressed up and no place to go!

Security guard keeping an eye on things.

The lovely couple.

Simply Painting The Sky

Friday night was slightly breezy with just
a touch of that autumn coolness in the air.

As the sun was setting and the moon was rising, the sky
over Gloucester was painted with an ever-changing palette.

Simply Encased In Snow

A little snow came visiting this week.
For a short time, the trees will be wearing snow jackets.
Here are a few images from West Gloucester.

Simply A Katama Home (continued)

It had been over 10 years since our last visit to Martha's Vineyard.
One thing that all noticed was the increased amount of traffic.
There just appeared to be much more of it than we remembered.
The worst of it appeared to be in Oak Bluffs where at times, one could
spend over 30 minutes hunting for a parking spot and still not succeed.
The roads between Oak Bluffs and Edgartown were often in gridlock
which is a word that should not need to be used on Martha's Vineyard.

The home we stayed in was located further out in Edgartown in an area called Katama.
The traffic out here was much lighter, especially in the early hours of the morning
when the only traffic consisted of cyclists and an occasional jogger.

Here are a few pictures taken during one morning's walk.
