Shadow Shot Sunday - Harvest Fest 2016

Shadow Shot Sunday 2 is back, and so am I after a busy last Saturday at our small city of Ansonia CT and its 2016 Harvest Festival. Being the one-of-four who coordinate the event, I was up and down Main Street and with the brilliant sun, shadows abounded all over the downtown venue. And we introduced a new mascot, the winsome walking pumpkin named Harvey. It was a great day of food, craft vendors, sounds and shadows!

Shadow Shot Sunday - Gastronomic Shadows

Shadow Shot Sunday 2 is back a mere two days from Food Trucks in the Valley fundraiser in Shelton CT that we attended. So many food trucks to choose from it was hard to decide on what carb-laden comfort food would make a great meal - I chose a fabulous quesadilla from Ay Arepas  but whatever your choice, it was a great late Summer event for foodies and shadows - the always lovely Patti is in the crowd scene with her camera high while taking a panoramic shot of a happy crowd...

Friday’s Hunt 2016-2.12

It is Friday and time again for a favorite meme, Friday Hunt  Host Teresa provides the clues, the hunt is on and we present our findings. Starting with 'L". first is Landed.

Lighthouse. This one at Lighthouse Point Park in New Haven CT, where Long Island Sound meets New Haven Harbor. A classic lighthouse captured March 2011.

Week's Favorite. Yesterday, we went to the Food Trucks in the Valley event in nearby Shelton. With so many choices, I went with Ay! arepa from New Haven with a fantastic chicken quesadilla combo. Fine eating!

Critter. I chose a lone seagull on a building at the beach in West Haven CT. Almost regal in appearance, although nobody bowed or curtsied in its presence…

Shadow Shot Sunday - Rock the Valley 2016

I am back to Shadow Shot Sunday 2 after a week's hiatus. Last Saturday, I was on the committee that put on Ansonia's Rock the Valley 2016 with food and craft vendors, kids events and six musical acts including the Cast of Beatlemania - and a shadow or two  further highlighting the fun day (even if I missed trying out Crepe Hut for dinner :)
