Wow!

December 14, 2008 at 8:13 pm by Claudia

I ran outside in my stocking feet (and its cold) to get this photo. What an amazing sunset! If you look closely, you’ll see a orange/yellow column that looks like its shooting up to the heavens – like a pillar of fire.

Happy Sunday.

Butterfly

July 20, 2008 at 2:50 pm by Claudia

I was sitting in our den, crocheting away, when I happened to look out the window and I saw this beauty! Of course, I ran for my camera and the beautiful butterfly willingly posed for several minutes.

If anyone knows what particular kind of butterfly this is, I would be so happy to know. I only know it is absolutely beautiful and a wonderful miracle on a Sunday afternoon.

More later…

I’ve been researching, and this seems to be an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly. Who knew?

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
