Maintaining narrative art, dog-walking, connecting with friends and family, reading, spending time mostly in small city of Portland, ME (visitors welcome), at our lake house in Wayne, ME and ocean-front cottage in Mount Desert Island during summer and fall.
Memories of growing up in Needham:
Walking to high school with Barbara Birkett and Karen John, practicing the songs in Oklahoma, Sound of Music, Porgy and Bess.
Riding bikes with friends to Wellesley, Dover and the Endicott Estate in Dedham.
Roller skating all over town with the old fashioned key skates that tightened over one's shoes, bike riding everywhere, painting on screen porches
Watching the snow fall and hoping the sidewalk plow didn't come so we would have a snow day off.
Playing outside every day, doing unstructured activities, just being kids on our own, catching fireflies and putting them in jars, playing hide and seek in the dark.
