2012 Catch-up

Much has happened in the closing months of the year.  In particular, this wonderful snowstorm last night that has turned the Armory into a winter wonderland!

The view from my window...

The trees are all frosted.

The houses, too.

And the beautiful, monumental Cranston Armory.

And a snowman!

In other news, poor Clovis had emergency back surgery after Thanksgiving.  It has been a month of recovery and confinement.  The house has become a convalescent home, and he is doing much better.

I made a playpen into his confinement chamber.  

And here are some pics from Thanksgiving in Provincetown before the back surgery crisis.  It was absolutely beautiful.  And I learned how to take panorama shots.

Red leaves from Provincetown.

And the tack-studded leather doors from the 1875 Bell Chapel right here in the neighborhood.  A nice sentiment for the holidays.

And some lovely cockatoos I found on a day of visiting junk shops.  :)
