Skywatching in Massachusetts

Trip to bookstore

Over the 4th of July weekend, TJ's mom needed a particular book to prepare a lesson plan for her class.  The libraries were closed so she drove to the bookstore while I admired the scenery and sky from the passenger seat:

  On theTurnpike


Crossing over the Connecticut River


The sky could still be seen from inside the bookstore.


At one month old, Tyler wasn't very interested in the books.  He did enjoy the car and stroller rides.

To see more skies, visit Skywatch Friday hosted by Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy and Sylvia.

    Beautiful Road Photography. Sometimes books put me to sleep, too. Car rides always do. :-)

    It looks like you may have been not too far away from me while you were in Mass.
    Very pretty skies :)

    You can see sky from inside the bookstore, you can also see it inside a book.

    A beautiful sky.

    More green and more water than you get to see in Arizona.
    It's never too early to get TJ used to bookstores and libraries.
    I wonder what your grandfather would have thought about e-books. He liked technology but I think he liked his printer's ink more.

    TJ looks a little bored by the story books- maybe he stayed up to late the night before reading! Hope you had a wonderful visit.

    Nice to be a passenger and be able to take pics along the way. TJ might have to get just a bit older before he appreciates literature.

    Books don't do babies much good anyway... unless they want to eat the pages out of them :)

    Your first shot of the sky is beautiful! Somehow it doesn't surprise me that your daughter is a teacher -she must have inherited some of her mother's skills:)
    So fun to enjoy your grand baby!

    Your first photo looks like the cotton wool clouds I had, except you had blue sky, and my sky was covered with it.

    How many books have you bought for him? Books are the best gifts. You don't have to buy baby books.
