I often think of the quaint beaches up your way (and how I need to visit them). We had a local arts festival this past weekend and I came across an artist that you should check out. One of the prints that we purchased is a scene from Provincetown (as described when we checked out). The artist is from MA and does a lot of scenes from up there. You might enjoy some of his work. His name is Danny O Studio (dannyostudio.com) Holly Gruszkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06562245870313515897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4478201407511428968.post-55312748374327034092014-06-24T14:30:28.518-04:002014-06-24T14:30:28.518-04:00What gorgeous art from both of you!!What gorgeous art from both of you!!Carol@6WilsonBlog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18207359295205754951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4478201407511428968.post-91622273343847688232014-06-23T21:49:56.424-04:002014-06-23T21:49:56.424-04:00Though I have just had an amazing adventure, I hav...Though I have just had an amazing adventure, I have not been to Cape Cod.

I was not familiar with Christina Baker, but I love her work. It was fun to follow your day on Instagram, and I hope you will put more of your pictures and thoughts up here. You know I fell in love with P'town last year, and now it's an early summer and early fall must for me.

We're lucky we live were we do. Your picture captures it all nicely.<br /><br />P Town is one of my favorite places. The restuarants are fantastic. The shops are fabulous. Our favorite is a shop at the north end of the commercial district that has many photographs from different photographers for sale. We like the one (who's name escapes me and ours are packed away for moving) who's work focuses on doorways. It seems that our trip is not complete without leaving with a new one too add to our collection.Ocean State Homehttp://oceanstatehome.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
