For Judy’s number game this week, the number is 148. So, the photos of the week are…
First is one of my favorite pieces of street art from Shelbourne Falls, MA. The unknown artist did a powerful rendering of a questioning hand in a very minimal way…I’m a bit jealous that it’s not my work!
Second is a truly lovely carved folk art rocking horse that languished at the Oldies Marketplace in Newburyport, MA for about a year. I almost shouted with joy when it went to is new home. It was much too lovely to sit in an antique store unappreciated.
Third is the tugboat that sits on boat stands near the entrance of Mystic Seaport in Mystic, CT. The tug worked in the local waters for many years and was the tug for the Preservation Shipyard at the museum before becoming part of the museum itself.
Fourth is this “Pete’s Dragon” inspired wind vane seen from the window of a restaurant on Bearskin Neck, in Rockport, MA. It made a hit with our “Pete’s Dragon” loving family.
Fifth is an interesting abstract three-dimensional sculpture at the Shelbourne Museum in Shelbourne, VT. You can get a bit lost looking into it.
The last was an accidental photo I took one afternoon of a mandelbrot pattern screensaver. It was December 31, 2023.

What is the fifth sculpture made of, Lou?
Hi Judy! If I remember correctly it’s plastic tubes. I was taken with you unlike that exhibit was with the rest of the museum, but afterwards I relized that I really need to go back an take a closer look. I had a whirlwind tour that day, only two hours – you need an entire day at that museum.
That’s what I thought.. plastic tubes cut into pieces and strung on some sort of plastic cord to keep them together..What a lot of work!
