I walked all over Beacon Hill in the rain this past week. It really was fun because it wasn't raining too hard. Daffodils were everywhere in the window boxes. I guess every one dressed up their homes for Easter. Since the only gardens are the ones "hidden" in back yards, window boxes are "the thing." These bright and cheery daffodils (even in the rain) are only two of the ones I saw.

This is one I posted when I first joined Flickr and one of my own personal favorites!!!Windows of Ireland - Gas station window in Ennistymon of County Clare with the ivy growing around it taking on the colors of fall. Reflection in the window is of the house across the street. Ennistymon is a market town close to Lahinch, it is located in the north west of county Clare Ireland. Ennistymon may be reached directly from Ennis by the N85 road through Inagh. The town is known for the traditional shop fronts of its centre and the lively “craic" pubs to be found here during the tourist season. The history of the town is relatively short, it was established as a town only in 1588, the year of the Spanish Armada, which features extensively in the local history all along the Co.Clare coast. The Falls Hotel was originally the residence of the McNamara family, and has since been extended to a hotel. A small river - the Inagh - runs by the town, and descends by means of some small waterfalls, known locally as 'the falls' or 'the cascades'. The best places to view these are from the road bridge and - better still - from inside The Falls Hotel, a short walk off the main street.
The broken windows theory is a criminological theory of the norm-setting and signaling effect of urban disorder and vandalism on additional crime and anti-social behavior. The theory states that maintaining and monitoring urban environments to prevent small crimes such as vandalism, public drinking, and toll-jumping helps to create an atmosphere of order and lawfulness, thereby preventing more serious crimes from happening.

I found this antique window latch about 20 years ago for about a dollar at a yard sale. I've been waiting for just the right place to use it. My husband is in the process of building a potting shed (or, garden cottage) for me from salvaged materials, including old, shabby chic windows. This antique bronze latch fit just perfectly into this new-old space. I can't wait til it's finished.

Installed in 1967, this is the fhe first and largest of the windows designed by Marc Chagall for All Saints' Tudeley, in Kent. It is a memorial to Sarah d'Avigdor-Goldsmid, daughter of a local landowner, who drowned in a sailing accident off the Isle of Wight at the age of 21.
Combining elements from Sarah's life and death in graphic detail, it moves from despair in the dark , swirling seas of the bottom lights , to hope and the joy in the brighter colours of the top lights, where a crucified Christ awaits Sarah's arrival with welcoming arms out-stretched.
Sarah was the daughter of a Jewish father and an Anglican mother but had been brought up as an Anglican. Having a keen interest in art, she had seen and admired the Twelve Tribes of Israel windows which Chagall had designed for the Hadassah Medical Centre synagogue in Ein Karem, Jerusalem, when they were displayed in Paris prior to their installation. Her parents, therefore, decided to ask Chagall, a Jew himself but with a strong spiritual sense which crossed religious boundaries, to design the memorial window, which he duly did.
If you look on the church website you can also see one of Chagall's earlier sketches for this same window but featuring Sarah floating in a kind of sea of flowers. It's under the heading 'The window that never was' at www.tudeley.org/allsaintstudeley.htm
