Happy Halloween!

If you are heading into Salem, MA today or tonight it will be one of the warmest Halloween Eve's that I can remember. Personally I will be hosting the 7 twelve year old Dwarves at my house tonight, but Salem will be the place to be if you like a bit of crowded spookiness. Check out the Haunted Happenings daily events for today, and if you're in the mood for some art, check out the SAA Gallery, and don't miss Terror Fantasies. And stay safe.

A Brilliant Walk

Today was the most beautiful fall day. I finally walked a certain portion of the new Peabody Bike Path and the colors were amazing. There were so many people out enjoying the weather, and the off-the-beaten-path trail that is not what one typically thinks of when they think of Peabody. Views like this always inspire me and work their way into my art somehow. I'm glad that inspiration is now so close at hand!

Goodbye summer

Where did our short summer go to? Here it is October, the Patriots are on, I have a full-blown head cold, and Joe is visiting art colleges. Time, like the Pats, just keeps on marching ahead.
