The Tewksbury State Hospital grounds are filled with theses wonderful old buildings, Many of which have seen better days, but add fresh snow and early morning sunshine they seem to be transformed back to their glory days.    

Have a great day everyone!

March has started off with a roar, a Nor'easter dumped over a foot of snow on us. The storm made for a horrible commute to work.  The plows were out in full force trying to clear the roads.  Hopefully (fingers crossed), this is the last snow storm we will see this winter.

"Who's turn is it to turn the hot tub back on!"

Sorry, but I had to post yet another snow scene.  As of the last storm, the Boston area has received 44.7 inches to date.  Probably half of that is still on the ground. We have already exceeded our average snowfall for the season.  I wonder how much more the next two months will bring, brrrrrrrr!

This is a sculpture that is in my town, when I saw it buried in the snow I just knew that I had to photograph it.  The name of the piece is "Touching Souls" by Mico Kaufman. The piece consists of four children, native-American, European-American, African-America and Asian-American, sitting on the ground, arms leaning back, legs outstretched and apart, with the soles of their shoes/boots touching all of which cannot be seen with the recent snowfall we have had.

"Enter at own risk!"

This is an abandoned building on the Tewksbury State Hospital grounds. The icicles are almost reaching the ground and blocking the window as if to keep everyone out.  With the winter we are having, there are some amazing icicle formations around. I have been trying to capture icicles for a month and was excited to come across this building in all it's icy beauty.

This hospital was established in 1852 and is still in operation today, not this part though.
