You know those times when you start your day, completely unaware that, before the sun sets, you are going to have something unexpected and wonderful happen? That’s what happened to me the day I visited the incredibly gorgeous Anne’s Washington Inn, and had the pleasure of meeting the very warm and hospitable Joe...

Saratoga Blossoms into Spring
To all you mothers out there…Happy Mother’s Day! Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it’s going to be a very nice day outside (not at all, actually), so I thought now would be a good time to share some of the beauty I have been photographing the past couple of weeks as Saratoga shed the...
Love is in the Air…and Rev. Joy Burke Helps Seal the Deal
“In the spring, a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.” – Alfred Tennyson There’s no denying that spring has made a grand entrance over the past week.

Apparently, Winter Isn’t Over Yet – Searching for Spring in Saratoga
In my most recent post, I was wandering around the State Park on a gorgeous spring-like morning.

While Most of Saratoga was Sleeping…
I WISH I could sleep in the mornings…particularly on the weekends…and most definitely past 5:30am. But I can’t. It doesn’t matter what time I go to bed or how exhausted I am, my internal clock starts singing well before the sun comes up. It’s crazy. But there’s something to be said for being up...
A Little Saratoga Holiday Sparkle to Close Out the Year
Happy 2017…a few days late! I haven’t posted in a while, largely because the holiday season is very, very busy for me. My day job involves a ton of commercial holiday decorating all over the Capital District which means added hours and a lot of physical exertion. I LOVE this part of my job,...
…And What an Autumn it Was!!
It would appear that the early and rather unexpected snowfall we experienced this past Thursday more or less finished off the foliage. But there's no denying that it was a beautiful season, full of the brilliant colors we expect here...
The Windows of Universal Preservation Hall
Happily, as part of my day job, I get to stop by and visit the beautiful Universal Preservation Hall on a weekly basis. This has become one of my favorite parts of my week. Not only do I get to...
Remembering 9/11…
Today marks the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center. Everyone knows this. Fifteen years later, everyone still grieves....
