New England Family Visit: August 13 & 14, 2019

Having lunch with Christine and Bill

in Massachusetts.

Christine with her Aunt Jean!

Along the Narragansett Bay in 

Rhode Island.

I was able to capture this

beautiful yellow bird

with my camera along the bay.

Got this closeup of the bee!

My nephew, Bob, is sitting

on the wall.  His daughter, Emma,

is with her boyfriend, Matt.

Marissa, Michelle and Bill.

Bob and Marissa were kind enough

to have us for a cookout!

Bill and his wife, Michelle.

Bill and Jean getting ready to enjoy

a lovely meal with everyone.  Bob and

Marissa's son, Matthew, was missing 

since he had to work.

 

Whitesbog Village, Browns Mills, NJ

Welcome to Whitesbog Village!

This is the first time Bill and I have been here.

Look closely and you can see

a pair of turtles sunning themselves.

A closeup of one of the turtles.

This reminded us of the Upper Penisula

of Michigan!

A sheltered cove of water lilies!

Just so beautiful.

A closeup of one of the white

water lilies.

Some ferns near a small stream.

Bill requested I take this view.

I found what I will call the little islands

in the background intriguing.

A closeup of some pink water lilies.

With water on both sides of the road,

it reminded me of driving on the

top of the dikes in Louisiana.

Enjoy the scenery!

No, we did not go inside the General Store.

Perhaps next time.  I think the autmn

would be nice with the colors changing.

Stopped at the Country Lakes Pub on the

way home and got Philly Cheese Steaks that

were really delicious.  I had to have a picture

of this sign that welcomed us to the

Pine Barrens!

Holland Farms, Cream Ridge, NJ

Near the entrance to Holland Farms in

Cream Ridge, NJ.

It seemed like there were millions of

tulips at the festival with lots of people!

A spectacular sight!

Two beautiful horses.

We will go back again when the

schools are not on break!

Christmas Photos for Alex and Madison

This one is for Madison and I ring

two handbells with one hand!

I love you!!!

Merry Christmas, Alex!

I am here with my John Deere tractor

and my sweatshirt with you in mind.

Love you dearly!!!
