| Rocky Neck ~ Cultural District on Cape Ann MA K is for keel for Alpahbe Thursday ~ 'timber of plate running length wise along the center of the bottom of a ship' ~ even smaller boats have keels. haiku without my keel where? centered, focused, finding self off course often. I live in a coastal town on the Northeast coast of New England. We have our rural areas and yet you can find a tiny rural piece near the center part of town that suggests Rural Thursday as in this photo below of a tiny sparrow that seemed to pose for me. |

Hi Carol,
ReplyDeleteYour photos are stunning! How did you ever get that Sparrow to pose for you? I'm so glad you stopped by to visit. With gardening and summer activities I haven't had time to participate in Alphabe-Thursday.
Beautiful shots! Wish I could convince a bird to pose for me. :D
ReplyDeletehave a great day.
What a sweet little sparrow to pose for you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling little bird -- thank you for sharing at RT this week, Carol. xo
ReplyDeleteLove your sailboat photo -- I used to sail years ago and really loved it! And the bird, well he's just so sweet I can't stand it!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
Carol, we are moving from Tucson to coastal Georgia on Monday. I really love the rural life and Brunswick is a town of only 30,000 people. I love your photos, as always.
ReplyDeleteI just love your header - sooo beautiful! And, you know I have a fond spot for New England, especially Maine, right? Just coming to your blog makes me wanna head north to visit all those quaint little New England towns along the coast and oh my! The seafood is so delicious - the best! I only like eating seafood when I'm in New England no other place. Okay, I lied just a bit. I will eat crab cakes on occasion at a few select restaurants in town. Very nice homey feeling 'K' post!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting today, Cathy
You live in such a lovely area. Sweet sparrow shot. It does look like it was posing for you. We all need to stay on an even keel. :):)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! Love the shot of the bird!
ReplyDeleteThe sparrow is such a sweet photo! You live in a beautiful place! Thank you for the reminder today to stay on an even keel.
ReplyDeletelucky you to live by a harbor. thanks for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteLovely picture of the harbour. Great Haiku
ReplyDeleteOh I always enjoy your photos. B
ReplyDeleteEverywhere is a heaven.
ReplyDeleteThe harbor looks like a great place to be. I live in Omaha, Nebraska. There is not a lot of Rural happenings around here either. My kids however love the outdoor. I capture what I can.
ReplyDeleteDoes the bird on the post make this a bird post? Cut pics. Mary
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos. I would love to visit that area one day.
ReplyDelete=)
Well, now I know the difference between a keel and a rudder.....great shot of Smith's Cove, and your avian friend....and, I, too, am often off course - if I even know the course to begin with!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful reflection of the sky in the water.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I just love Cape Ann - it's one of our favorite places to cycle! Have a great week.
ReplyDeletejust lovely views. (:
ReplyDeleteHi Colette -- I like your "K" post. Yes, "K"eels are a necessary part of the boat. Every kind except perhaps a raft. The Harbor is pretty, almost smothered though with boats.
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in Manchester (NH) we would go to Seabrook for seafood and to Hampton for the beach. But I can't remember ever driving down to Cape Ann.

Excellent "K" post, lovely pics....
ReplyDeleteI love the Atlantic coast - grew up sailing with my family. Now I'm landlocked in Oklahoma! Miss it so much! Love you photographs - can almost taste the salt air! {:-Deb
ReplyDeleteLove the bird on a post!
ReplyDeleteLoved the haiku♫♪
ReplyDeleteBeautiful harbor picture with the lights, clouds and reflection! I also love the haiku, though I don't know anything about this art :)
ReplyDeleteYour photos are lovely! And your quote for the day is so appropriate!
ReplyDeleteI love all of this post, and your Keel haiku especially speaks to me! I will think of it often.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. I love the picture of the cape. It is so completely different from my surroundings.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol! I'm on an even keel and finally catching up on my late A-T reading!
ReplyDeleteLoved your inKredible bird on a post picture!
