Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge and Commercial Buildings
This week Cee has asked us to have PHOTOGRAPHIC FUN WITH COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS.
Will do Cee!
Here are my fun commercial buildings.
They make chocolate here I think. Or maybe Collies. My sister would know which.
Cabras Castle is actually a high end hotel. My daughter and I got to stay in the stables.
It’s bigger on the inside than on the outside and the owner spends time.
This was one of my favorite summer stops when I was a kid.
Maple Syrup is big business in these parts

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: What’s In Those Hands?
This week Cee has asked us to have fun with HANDS. Clicking the underlined link can be very “handy” if you want to get to Cee’s site and see all the other hands she has on deck! 😉
My daughter recently had a hand in making some fallow deer very happy at the Southwick Zoo in Mendon MA

Staycation Pt. 4
Since I had little money to spend on extravagances this year I chose to take several free galavants through the countryside for my vacation.
One of the places I hiked was Doane’s Falls in Royalston MA. Doanes is just at the outlet of the Miller’s River as it makes its way into the Tully Dam spillway.
The first time I walked the falls was with my grandparents when I was a little boy. I don’t think I have walked all the way through to Tully since.
Usually the head waters of the falls are broiling making it very dangerous to swim. Many a diver has jumped into the pool never to reemerge. With the little rainfall we have had the first falls are reduced to a mere trickle of their usual volume.

The third falls
Several boasters were taking advantage of the summer heat out on the Tully Dam waterway. It was a beautiful summer day and the whole hike took me about an hour and a half. When you visit bring plenty of water, bug spray and mind the poison ivy!
