She was an event coordinator at the performing arts center at a liberal arts college in our small town back in Pennsylvania. She was involved with all sorts of things, she opened my eyes and my mind to so much. Often, I got to tag along and see some pretty cool behind the scenes shenanigans...get invited to the schmoozy dinners with the artists that came to perform, free tickets, all the perks. One of our last adventures together was going to the International Festival of Arts & Ideas in New Haven, Connecticut. We were soooo in our element and just had the best time exploring a new place and new art together. My mom and I laughed a lot together, explored a lot together. We used to have so much fun, and I very much miss spending time with my best friend. I was so looking forward to the adult mother daughter relationship we were moving towards, and I deeply cherish the moments and memories that we were able to create together. (Photo is of a sidewalk decal that says “June 8-22 International Festival of Arts & Ideas artidea.org”)
Onions sprouting in some soil in a big pot
A small flamboyance of flamingos wade in some water near logs and various trees and deep green foliage. A single white bird sits on one of the logs nearby. The photo has a very dark, grainy, old school film vibe to it.

A handmade card, the background a patterned cardstock to look like a light wood grain, the middle an oval shaped polka dotted cardstock with scalloped edges, and within that a green and purple floral patterned oval shaped piece of cardstock. The card is adorned with pressed flowers, letter stickers that spell “BLOOM”, a white lace ribbon vertically running along the left side of the card, stamps and stickers that compliment the floral theme of the card.
Trees with leaves of deep reds, golden yellows and oranges against a clear blue sky. Shadows and sunlight can be seen throughout all the leaves on the trees.

So many trips together. Our favorite was Cape May, NJ, sometimes for a week, other times just a quick trip for the weekend. We’d find something different every time, but also started to have our “regular” spots we’d go to each time we visited. We were driving around, scoping out spots for dinner one night and mom told me to take a picture of this one in case we wanted to try it. We never did get the chance. I’d love to go back some day and see what Cheeks at the Beach is all about.
The front of a multi level commercial building with an Irish pub occupying one of the spaces. The pub has a dark green façade with gold letters that read “Kilpatrick’s Publick House”. White planters with small bushes line the sidewalk in front, and a roadway stands in between the photographer and the building with part of a tree visible to the right of the frame.

Silhouettes of walnut trees against the background of a purple, orange, and blue sunsetting sky
A bare sycamore tree is at the forefront against a forest full of bare late fall trees with greenish yellow foliage on a few sporadic trees throughout the mix. Vultures are seen on various branches of the sycamore, and the photo is dark and gloomy looking, the only color being from the sporadic foliage and a few dark green evergreens in the lower part of the frame
A black barn sits in a backyard, and two cows are seen grazing in the fenced area next to it. Bare trees can be seen behind it in the distance under an almost night fallen sky while spring peepers are peeping away. It’s windy, a white bird house and a black cable can be seen swinging lightly.
