John Prine died today of COVID 19. He had survived throat and lung cancer and was finally well enough to go back on the road. He had a tour planned and I was so happy for him. I have been a big fan of his for the past 20 years. I loved his music, his … Continue reading THE MUSIC OF JOHN PRINE – Marilyn Armstrong

BOSTON HARBOR FROM THE TOP – Marilyn Armstrong
BOSTON FROM THE TOP It was a wedding and I was all dressed up so I was NOT carrying a camera. Thus I found myself using my cell phone, not at all my favorite camera -- it isn't a good telephone and it's a worse camera. It was, however, the only one I could fit … Continue reading BOSTON HARBOR FROM THE TOP – Marilyn Armstrong
WHAT DID YOU WANT TO BE AND WHAT ARE YOU NOW? – Marilyn Armstrong
#Openbloghop: What did you want to be when you grew up versus what you are today?

ON THE UPCOMING 50th ANNIVERSARY OF EARTH DAY – Marilyn Armstrong
Trump is an awful man. I can't seem to find something positive to say about him and for me, that's unusual. I can always empathize, even with very bad people (not including one ex-husband). But not Trump. For him, I can't find a teardrop of compassion. He has no soul or conscience. He is a … Continue reading ON THE UPCOMING 50th ANNIVERSARY OF EARTH DAY – Marilyn Armstrong
THE CHANGING SEASONS MARCH 2020 – Marilyn Armstrong
The Changing Seasons, March 2020 I suspect we will all remember this as the month during which we saw the full-throttle arrival of Coronavirus. My birthday was March 11th and we went out to dinner. The following day, they closed Massachusetts and much of the rest of the country. Interesting birthday. Interesting times. My picture taking … Continue reading THE CHANGING SEASONS MARCH 2020 – Marilyn Armstrong
