Everything changed very quickly today when I got a call from my mother that she wasn't feeling well. Her doctor was on vacation and was told to go to South Shore Hospital's emergency room.

It was nice to see the Maasdam we sailed on her around the Mediterranean on our first European cruise.

Beach Fire - Day 145

George and I had dinner at Beach Fire today at Nantasket Beach. It is the new restaurant where the Ocean Club was. The view is beautiful being in the Cliff of Atlantic Hill over looking the beach. I was disappointed in the clams they were okay not great. But the view made up for it.

White Bike - Day 144

Another busy day. Went to the Paragon Carousel shop to bring some more photographs to sell. Then met up with some Hull Artists to pin on letters to the banner the Hull Light Company hangs across Nantasket Ave to announce the Studio Tour this weekend. As I was leaving the Victorian porch we were working on I saw Jeanne's white bike planter. I had to use it as today's photo.

Today I drove up Southern Artery in Quincy by CVS and saw that the work has began on the restoration of the Grist Mill on the banks of the Town River.
