A Bit of Internet Luck . . .

They're having some internet troubles here at Cuttyhunk but we just managed to find a window where we were able to get on the net so here we are. I think I'll just try to post some pictures with short descriptions where needed to give a flavor of what has been going on recently. The first flavor would be AMAZING pizza. We 're about 2500 miles from the Lucky Lab in Portland so we have to make due on our own. Here are some shots of us doing our best to compensate . . .

The finished product was wonderful. The dough for the pizza is Joanna's creation. She uses a recipe from Good Food, Great Medicine A Homemade Cookbook written by Mea Hassell and Miles Hassell, M.D.. It is actually a recipe for pita bread but does wonderfully on the grill.

So, those fireworks is Newport, yes they were pretty fantastic. Heres an impression of what we watched . . .


And here is another impression . . .


The fun thing about these two shots is that the blur in each is really a function of the weather we were experiencing at the time. The wind was really blowing and it was raining. On top of that there was a fair bit of chop in the harbor. So when I was taking the photos the camera was moving due to the motion of the boat. As a result the images are in "motion" but I think that actually works for the pictures.

Here is a shot of Jo, Jake and Emily at the beach at Block during the fireworks show . . .



This is shot of Drew at the helm on our way over from Newport to Cuttyhunk . . .

So as not to push my luck, I'll post this entry and then try for another. Just don't want the net connection to crash before I get this post up.
