Spring at Mystic Seaport Museum
A spring stroll around Wilcox Park in Westerly, RI
Every spring, I hop over the border from Connecticut to Rhode Island to visit Wilcox Park. It is located in Westerly, Rhode Island in the heart of Downtown. Wilcox Park is a 14 acres botanical garden. The park is very spacious with walking paths, benches, and large grassy areas.
I recently took my pup for a stroll around the park to enjoy all the trees and flowers that had bloomed. Often during April, I visit the park multiple times to enjoy the nature. There is a gazebo, a pond with turtles and fishes, a pretty footbridge and more to admire. There is a foundation to the side of the library and a military memorial site.
When everything blooms, it is very photogenic! I’ve seen families and couples use it as a backdrop for their photos. I’ve always left Wilcox Park with so many photos to share. The park is very underrated and a gem in Westerly, RI. It neighbors the Downtown Westerly and Pawcatuck so it’s easy to make a day out of it. There are plenty of local businesses and restaurants to support.
The park is opened to the public from dawn-dusk. Parking spots are available around Wilcox Park near Westerly Library or in Downtown Westerly. There are several entrances into the park — one is through the garden next to Westerly Library or on High St x Canal St (near United) will take you directly to the turtle pond. The park welcomes dogs on leash.
Enjoy the beautiful park and remember to keep it clean!
USS Indiana homecoming 3/27/25
Hooray for another homecoming in Groton, Connecticut. USS Indiana returned home on March 27, 2025. Seeing that red tug boat heading out never gets old — the excitement knowing that the submarine is nearing Thames River to head down to the sub base.
It was a cold and windy day, but it didn’t stop many people from coming out and support the sailors. The sub vets from Groton always attend every homecoming donning their red hats and fire off the cannon (with blanks, of course).
Grateful for our military to serve for our country, as well their families.

Hooray for some snow! Mystic, Connecticut always looks magical with the snow so I headed to Downtown to capture the scenes. These photos were taken on February 9, 2025. Please make request here if you would like to purchase any images.
USS Virginia homecoming 12/20/24
USS Virginia returned home from their deployment on December 20, 2024 to Groton, Connecticut. I’ve photographed several homecomings — there’s something special about each one of them. This was first holiday homecoming and the spirit was high! The sailors got in the holiday spirit as there were a couple who dressed as Santa and Buddy the Elf.
This homecoming also got to me when I saw the sign saying “Welcome Home Hailey”. I’m assuming Hailey to be a female. It was only recent that females were allowed to go on submarine deployments. As I have a family member actively working for U.S. Navy here in Groton. Knowing that my loved one had a part in making that happen and to see the results was something I couldn’t explain. In one word, proud.
I’m always grateful to everyone who serves for our country. Wishing the sailors and their loved ones a very Happy Holidays!
