My Nephew’s Wedding at Hammond Castle!

Posted by admin on Jul 15, 2010 in Decorating, Photography, Travel

Wow! When we heard that my nephew had chosen a location above Boston for his wedding we all didn’t understand why — but then we got there…. Just wow! Hammond Castle in Gloucester, Mass is just breathtaking. We drove up and took a short stroll down a flight of stairs and were confronted with a beautiful sight. Hammond Castle was built by John Hays Hammond, Jr. between 1926-29 as a wedding gift for his wife. Not only is it a beautiful setting for a wedding (see the pictures below) it is also a museum worth the tour. I highly recommend making the trip! Visit their website for more information: hammondcastle.org.

Dreaming of Block Island

Posted by admin on Jun 23, 2010 in Photography, Travel

I came across this photo today that we took last summer in Block Island. We had gone out there for a friend’s wedding and it was such a beautiful and memorable weekend. Seeing this photo just sent me back and now I want to schedule that ferry trip! Hope you enjoy this little burst of pink with incredible blue skies….  :)

….with Tennessee yet, but this website might just give me a change of heart! I absolutely love the background! Bravo to the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development and to Designsensory for developing such a great site! Maybe it’s time for a road trip?
