My favorite thing to do~light a fire in my chiminea. It's just so relaxing.

Check out the new park here in town~amazing w/ an even more amazing story:
This park was built in honor of Naoko O'Flynn, who died of cancer last year at the age of 35. Her husband, Michael, wrote, "After a tremendous outpouring of financial support from the community here in the North Shore, in New York City (where we lived for many years) and her native Japan, I decided to refurbish Great Neck Park down by Pavillion Beach-for while Naoko was fighthing cancer for 18 long months she found great solace in watching our 3-year-old daughter, Lucy, playing both on her backyard swing in Essex and, on the occasion her mother's health allowed her to take an excursion, down at Great Neck near my parents home in Ipswich...I thought a great way to honor her would be to build a new playground where children would enjoy endless hours of good, old-fashioned play."
By the park entrance, there will be a large rock emblazoned with the words of his late wife's favorite poem, by Stephen Grellet:"I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again."
and after the big show...
Great job, my tiny dancers! xoxo
