Where's Em?

Keep reading... you just may find me.

Yeah, I know I keep promising to blog more, but I tell you it has been a busy month...The whirlwind started on the day before my birthday (4/27). Had some of the kids over for dinner. One of the things I got was this awesome birthday card that Ashley made for me....

And so began the month of indulgence...Lots of food and drink..

Next stop was a weekend trip down to Provincetown, MA. with my wife, and mom  to visit my brother John. He is a master craftsman down there. (check out his work at http://www.studsandmore.biz, or on face book (Studs and More). I hadn't had a chance to see his work up close and in person before, so I was happy for the opportunity.  Sorry to say I only got a pic of this gorgeous ceiling he was building in a cottage,

and this one of some custom cabinets he was building.

Great work! So proud of John. I also got to hear him sing karioke at the Governor Bradford. Never heard him sing before, so when I heard him, I thought "That can't be him. Must be some effects in the microphone". Nope, because the next person sucked...So it was his voice, and I was totally blown away. Wow.

So, we had a good couple of days visiting. Stayed at the John Randall House Bed and breakfast. Great bunch of people there. I highly recommend it if you ever go. Clean and cozy place. Many thanks to the manager Bob for his hospitality.

Here are a bunch of pics from the weekend.

The "Post Office". Great place for lunch

Also ate at Bayside Betsy's. Good food there!

Town Hall. The architecture and design in this town is beautiful

The Library, taken early one morning

from the end of the pier.

I was up a couple mornings at 5:30 to try and catch the sunrise.

Too cloudy to get a decent pic. But I did get bronchitus. Boo.

Lots of fishing vessels. Love this shot.

Up on one of the dunes at Herring Cove.

There were whales swimming in the cove, but I couldn't get a shot.

Sunset at Herring Cove

Took pics of 2 couples there. They saw a photographer

and asked if I would mind taking their picture.....

Glad I could record a great memory for them.

The Pilgrim Monument

Great museum there. Unfortunately, the tower

was closed that day. Was opening the next day

for the summer. Bummer.

My brother did the floor of the museum! Great job!

You found me!

Anyway, it was a wonderful weekend. My brother showed us a great time. I had an awesome birthday, and so glad we had a chance to go visit. We'll be going back!

Next up? Working on shots from our vacation in Austin TX.. Hopefully I won't make you wait another month for that.
