A picture to ponder... The outhouse by the sea.

Perched high on a cliff on the west coast of Newfoundland, this outhouse looked a bit precarious on a very cold and blustery day. 

Old buses.

 Colorful and creative, old buses make us look twice.

Make a suet cake for the birds.

It was a frigid one degree when we got up this morning.  I filled the bird feeders last night, as the birds eat heartily when it's this cold out.

A brisk walk to lunch in Newport and some architectural detail along the way.

With a cool breeze off the water and a gorgeous blue sky overhead, it was the perfect day for a walk around Newport and lunch on Thames Street.

Afternoon shadows.

Afternoon shadows are temporary....fleeting....limited....perishable.

Order up! Diner for lease.

Diners are a piece of Americana that provide us with good conversation and fast food in an atmosphere unlike any other.

A bit of Spring for the new year....forcing paper whites.

We've been waiting for winter to arrive and now that it's here, we long for a little bit of spring!  Forcing paper whites or narcissus, is a great way to bring the outdoors in.
