Late Bloomer Boomer: Civil War monument offers chance to reflect on nation's past
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2013/05/civil-war-monument-offers-chance-to.html
Sunday, May 26, 2013. Civil War monument offers chance to reflect on nation's past. DERBY - Since it's Memorial Day weekend I thought I'd post a photo of a war memorial monument that has graced the Green facing Elizabeth Street for more than 125 years. The monument is flanked by four 11-foot long cannons. You can read more here. About the history of the monument. It features a bronze statue of a Civil War soldier atop a granite pedestal. I drove down Elizabeth Street Saturday after covering a ceremony.

Late Bloomer Boomer: Shadow Shot Sunday ~ after the reception
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2013/09/shadow-shot-sunday-after-reception.html
Saturday, September 28, 2013. Shadow Shot Sunday after the reception. Shadows sometimes appear at night, as I found out Thursday when we were leaving a Valley Arts Council opening reception. The guy on the right is our friend and arts council president Rich DiCarlo. And behind him is a shadow of yours truly taking the shot. And I both have photos of food in the food-themed 'Delicious! A good-sized crowd turned out - and it was free pizza for all! It was a fun night. And free pizza is always great! Be a p...

Late Bloomer Boomer: Shadow Shot Sunday ~ midair
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2013/08/shadow-shot-sunday-midair.html
Saturday, August 31, 2013. Shadow Shot Sunday midair. I enjoyed watching this tyke learning how to bounce a basketball at a back to school. And I attended Sunday. We are members of the local Salvation Army's advisory board and helped out a bit at the event. There were a lot of volunteers there so we really didn't have to do too much! But we gave our moral support to the effort. I'd say a good time was had by all. And here he is looking at the dunk tank, which I'm sure he would have liked to try out!

Late Bloomer Boomer: Breast cancer: Surviving and thriving
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2014/02/breast-cancer-surviving-and-thriving.html
Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Breast cancer: Surviving and thriving. Apparently I still have trouble writing about myself, because I didn't know how to start writing this post. But I didn't want this day to go by without recording its significance to moi. I'm a three-year breast cancer. I received my diagnosis over the phone on Feb. 11, 2011 while we were eating dinner. Hearing the words from my doctor was rather surreal. It was kinda like, "oh, ok." And I hung up the phone. I'm feeling very fortunate toda...

Late Bloomer Boomer: Shadow Shot Sunday ~ winter
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2014/02/shadow-shot-sunday-winter.html
Saturday, February 22, 2014. Shadow Shot Sunday winter. Winter Sunset, February 2014. I shared this photo on Facebook and got quite a few comments and 'likes' so I thought I'd re-purpose it today as a shadow shot. And to continue the wintry theme, a snowy shot from this week:. Sun and shade in the backyard. Join in the shadow-seeking fun and see shadows from around the world at ShadowShotSunday2. Our snow finally melted but it sure stayed longer this year. February 22, 2014 at 10:45 AM. Sun, clear sky.

Late Bloomer Boomer: Shadow Shot Sunday
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2013/08/shadow-shot-sunday.html
Saturday, August 24, 2013. I dug into the "archives" this morning to find a photo so I could join in Shadow Shot Sunday! I've been away too long from this fun meme. I took this in September 2010. It's a mulberry tree in our front yard. See lots more shadowy pix from across the globe at Shadow Shot Sunday 2. Hosted this week by our blog friend Gemma Wiseman in Australia. The tree looks mighty, the shadows are strong yet each fruit of the tree is diminutive. A study in contrasts in our front yard. Be a par...

Late Bloomer Boomer: He made his move
http://patti-latebloomerboomer.blogspot.com/2013/12/he-made-his-move.html
Monday, December 16, 2013. He made his move. So I haven't written anything here in a while.a long while. But I do take care of two blogs, one for the New Haven Register. And one for the Valley Arts Council. Yesterday we moved our son into his first apartment. It's in Brooklyn. He landed a job in Manhattan and has been commuting for two weeks from home while waiting for the apartment to be ready. Now his commute is much shorter! Cameron explaining to Ralph how he is going to arrange things in his new place.
