Tagging
Graffiti seems to be becoming more common around town. Behind many buildings, bridges even fences are being tagged. Growing up we only saw this in the movies or our once in awhile trip to New York city. Rarely did we see any graffiti in Leominster.
Pictured here is some graffiti I saw while walking the monoosnock trail. This bridge allows the brook seen here flow underneath route 2. Seems that this person has more artistic ability than most around town when it comes to graffiti. Then again it could be due to the remote location he/she had all the time in the world.
We made it
Went hiking this morning on the monoosnock trail. We did the part that starts at maple street in Leominster and hiked to the top where there is an observation point that overlooks Kmart plaza and parts of Leominster and Fitchburg. It is just over 1 mile to the top and all uphill. Ashley wanted to jog to the top while I was looking for any rock I could find to sit on for a break 
. To be young again...
I put together a panoramic photo from the top that came out okay. I used 7 photos and the process resulted in a 16049 x 2458 photo. My blogging software was not happy with this photo forcing me to go to plan B. If you'd like to see the pano you can do so by following this link Pano
My World Tuesday
This past Saturday Leominster held a summer stroll which has become an annual event. I haven't seen the numbers of participants yet, but we finally got a day without much rain and attendance was high.
This event catered to old and young alike. Pictured above were the swing dancing lessons.
The summer stroll started off with a parade consisting of motorcycles, antiques cars as well as the Leominster High Marching band.
Of course if it did get too hot, we had Dunkin Donuts Ice Coffee to save the day
To see the world through others eyes, visit That’s my World, a weekly meme sharing photos and impressions of all the world seen through the participants’ eyes.
You want what?
This clown had a long line of kids waiting for balloon animals at the Summer Stroll over the weekend.
This weeks theme for I Heart Faces is "Wedding Bells". Not having any wedding pictures handy I decided to do the optional theme "Just for Fun". See more faces at http://www.iheartfaces.com/.
Summer Stroll
Leominster held a "Summer Stroll" downtown yesterday. Most of the roads were closed off to host the event. Classic car parade, Leominster High Marching Band, a DJ playing 50's and 60's music are some of the events happening during the stroll. For the kids there were clowns, pony rides and face painting. Overall a fun day with the sun out for a change which has been a rare event lately.
