Not to long ago I posted some pictures of fireworks I took at McCoy Stadium. I couldn't believe how close I was able to get. I went back on July 1, 2011. I made sure I was in the same spot I was in the last time I was there. Only this time, I used a smaller lens, giving the impression the fireworks were further away then they actually were. In reality I was almost right under them. I ended up taking over four hundred pictures. Here's a sample:

I went back to Tower Hill Botanic Garden in Boylston, MA 6.26.2011 to walk around and see what else the place has to offer. After taking a couple different trails through the woods, I suddenly remembered why you really shouldn't do that if you're already hot and sweaty. The mosquitoes had a feast !! My walk was a little faster now because I wanted to leave as many as the mosquitoes behind as I could as I headed into the Botanic Garden to see if anything new bloomed since last week. Nope!

Even found some 'Rabbit-Ear Cacti' blooming

Swan Point Cemetery is located in Providence, Rhode Island. We found it while going for a ride a few weeks ago and I've wanted to go back and that's what I did on 6.25.2011.

A statue I saw in another family plot.






I thought this one was different too.

The name of the new place is Tower Hill Botanic Garden. It's in Boylston, MA and is huge !! I'm going back again because I only got to see about a quarter of it and just the early Spring flowers and bushes were in bloom, so I was a bit restricted on the pictures I took.



I think these are 'Straw Flowers'






These were the only Daisies I found and if you look close, you'll see a LOT of buds.






The place is so big, there's benches like this one all over the grounds.

I found a new place to take some picture this coming Sunday. I'm not going to give the name of the place now. I can say it's a little North West of Boston, Ma. I'll give you more information about the place when I come back and then when I get the new pictures online.

Here are some pictures of a few Parrots I took on Saturday, 4.30.2011 at Slater Park in Pawtucket, RI.

They now have an Android program for Li. I wonder if that will help me keep this journal up to date?    Yeah riiiiiiiiiiiight.

It's amazing what you find when you've had things stored away for almost 25+ years.

I went out to get some pictures of the "rough surf" and once again didn't find any water rough enough to take pictures. So instead, I took some pictures of a couple of buildings in Fairhaven, MA.
