Highbush blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum). Each of these many lovely flowers will become a berry! These are on the north side of the house where they get some morning and afternoon sun.

Riverside Cemetery in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts was created in 1850 by Warren Delano II, the grandfather of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. An early "rural" or "garden style" cemetery, it is a favorite walking place. It was modeled after Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, MA. These are from this morning's walk.

It was a misty spring morning on the shore of Buzzards Bay at West Island in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts. The WWII watch tower has stood near the shore since the 1940s.

Wednesday is a walking day with Broxo at the town beach at #WestIsland in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts. He played with some of his dog friends, but at first it was just the two of us.

The #Fairhaven #Massachusetts Visitors Center is housed in an 18th Century building, so my dooryard garden is planted with herbs and flowering perennials that would have been available in 1798 when the building was built. The common orange #daylilies are starting to pop up.

In my coastal #Massachusetts planting zone (7a), #Rosemary can winter over in south-facing areas, especially close to a wall that reflects the warmth back at the plant. This variety "Arp" is particularly hardy here. This has been growing for years now in the #Fairhaven Visitors Center herb garden. I have cuttings rooting indoors.

My office this morning. The #Fairhaven #Massachusetts Visitors Center is located in a 1798 Federal-style building built as a private academy. Being a one-man Town department, I had to shovel my way in this morning.

About 4.5 inches of #snow in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts this morning. My work time was delayed a couple of hours, so I could take a few #dog photos. His name is Broxo, after a graphic novel written by a friend of ours.

On Tuesday I read this book to a class of third graders. It is about a young man who became the first #Japanese person to live in the United States in the 1840s, right here in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts. Many Japanese visitors come to Fairhaven because of the connection with #Manjiro #Nakahama. #FairhavenMA #SouthcoastMA #USHistory #Japan

The Romanesque style Millicent Library in #Fairhaven #Massachusetts was financed by industrialist Henry H. Rogers of the Standard Oil Co. in memory of his daughter who died at the age of seventeen. It was designed by architect Charles Brigham and was dedicated January 30, 1893, what would have been Millicent's 20th birthday. The tower of the Unitarian Memorial Church, also a Rogers and Brigham collaboration, is to the left in the background. #architecture #FairhavenMA #SouthcoastMA #library
