DSC06000It seems to be a new passion of mine.

DSC06000I love rummaging through old treasures

DSC06000around Vintage shops,

  1. Oh how cool... I will be investigating further. Is someone off to Colby College? For real? Now that's cool, too. Two of my favorite people in all the world graduated from Colby.

    I have always loved your photographs and your eye for beauty. It's one of my joys to visit you and see them.
