    I was having second thoughts about a snowy Commonwealth Avenue walk with my furry 10-month-old terrier, but she convinced me that it’d be fun! Poppy explained the basics …

    Find a big pile of snow …

    Eat as much as possible …

    Shake off the excess!

    There are always other dogs to see along the way.

    And, if you time it right, there are shovelers to clear the way!

    Lots of people stay home on a day like this, so we’ll have the place to ourselves.

    But, you always have to be on the lookout for scary snow plows!

    They’re everywhere!

    We’ll enjoy watching people wearing funny hats!

    And, when we get tired we can sit and watch the snow pile up.

  • Snowdrops, Crocus, and Tulips, Oh My!

    Walking along Commonwealth Avenue in the Back Bay yesterday, we spotted bulbs a poppin' in many of the sunny side front yards. Here's a sample of what you might see if you get out before a possible weekend snow covers them up again.

    CHE_2027 - Version 22013-02-20-snowdrops-febrruary-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    These snowdrops were not quite open, but ready to bloom!

    CHE_2010 - Version 22013-02-20-crocus-february-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Poking their first leaves through the snow, there were crocus all over the place.

    CHE_2001 - Version 22013-02-20-tulips-february-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    This yard has an assortment of bulbs showing pretty good growth. 

    Don't miss a photo opportunity. This Canon PowerShot G15 camera will give you what you need to take stills and video. Canon's G series is our all-time favorite for everyday cameras. We own the G10 and G11. They're a little bigger than the compacts most people use, but let you shoot with automatic settings or easy-to-use manual controls that please the many pros who use them as second cameras. And, if you're ready to turn pro, follow our lead. Ed Shoots with the Nikon D7000 Digital SLR and we just added a Nikon D600 to our camera fleet and are extremely happy with the performance it has delivered.

    This is the season to walk the sidewalks of Commonwealth Avenue in the Back Bay and admire the beautiful holiday decorations. This doorway is on the Arlington to Berkeley Block. 

    If you happen to be near here on December 20th from 5-6pm, you may hear the Back Bay Bell Ringers performing at the entrance to the Commonwealth Avenue Mall on Arlington Street.
