Sigh… I miss Game of Thrones
It really hasn’t been that long since Season 4 ended, but it feels like it has been an eternity. I guess I had not fully appreciated how much I looked forward to watching Game of Thrones every Sunday, but there were times when it was practically the highlight of my week. I miss having that weekly thing to look forward to watching with Kelly.
So in the meantime I have been finding all sorts of ASOIAF/GoT things to keep myself entertained.
Quick trip to New Bedford today
Kelly and I decided to take a quick road trip down to the South Coast to New Bedford so we could catch the Charles W. Morgan before she left. It also gave us the chance to stop in at New Bedford Antiques at the Cove, one of our favorite antique malls anywhere and definitely one of our favorite places on the South Coast.
Our home server has had some issues
Years ago, I decided to build my own server. Part of it was wanting to have the experience of building and running my own server, because I had shockingly little server experience of any kind. Part of it was knowing how such a machine could help me manage the home network I was also building. So in 2010 our home server came into existence.
And then two weeks ago, it went out of existence.
Brimfield 2014 – The Loot – Part 2
We’ve showed you the books, the jewelry, and the metal-ware. Now it’s time for everything else. It’s amazing how much great stuff we got that was SO inexpensive. It’s also amazing that we’re going to be able to fit it all in 3 posts.
Brimfield 2014 – The Loot – Part 1
Geoff and I found a lot of great things at Brimfield this year. Unlike past years we didn’t go looking with extremely specific things in mind. This helps tremendously because you tend to happen across things that you can use or give as gifts and spend more time browsing and less time hunting. I’ve managed to photograph most of the items. We’re going to break them up into a few posts over the next week or so because listing them all at once would be insane.
Brimfield 2014 – the bizarre & the geeky
We’re back from Brimfield. While we haven’t had a chance to photograph all of our cool finds yet, we did get a chance to take some photos while we were there of some odd stuff. This post, a lot like the last one, is dedicated to the weird, the strange and the downright bizarre. Fair warning: if you don’t have a sense of humor this post may not be for you.
At Brimfield thinking of @TheBloggess
Geoff and I go to Brimfield every year. Last year was the exception, we were too broke and working too many jobs to be able to take off the time to go. This year, because we’ve saved our pennies and because Geoff starts a new job on Monday, (more on that later) we’re here.
The Art of Craft
Singing Stones Jewelry will be a featured vendor this weekend at The Art of Craft at the Fayerweather School in Cambridge. This is a fundraising fair for the arts programs at the school. There will be live music, food, and lots of handmade pieces by craftspeople from all over the region.
Please come and bring the whole family. Admission is $5 per person with a maximum cost of $20 per family. Parking is FREE and the school is located just off of Route 2 and also off of the Rt 78 and 74 bus lines.

Mark your calendars! Cambridge Open Studios is coming!
Cambridge Open Studios is back, and this year it is all of Cambridge in only one weekend. Just like last year there will be a shuttle bus that will take you, for free, all over town. And, lucky for us all, the primary departure point will be at Cambridge College, 1000 Mass Ave, every hour on the hour. That also happens to be where I’ll be showing my work this year. I love it when a plan comes together.
