On a recent grocery shopping trip I took a picture of the sign at the plaza entrance for out of towners. Guess what I found, another phone booth beside Market Basket. <br />
<br />
And the tree on Fruit St., which used to be so beautiful in the fall arching over the street.<br />

There were so many people there, I was glad to see <br />
the supporters of local businesses. I saw Cliff Wilson who paints these beautiful paintings of Ashland landmarks, historic places and buildings. He graciously allowed me to take a photo of him with the collection on display in the booth. If you haven't been to the Farmer's Market yet, I encourage you to check it out. I was pleasantly surprised. <br />

Proceeds from the print sales go to the Ashland Historical Society. I bought my print of St. Cecilia's Grotto. I'll have to go back next weekend as I think I really want the one of Tasty Treat. <i>(Note-booth will not be back until August) </i> I may also have to get one of those Ashland books, as I misplaced mine and there is a picture of my Mom in there. Also have to go get some fresh dill from one of the farm stands. <br />
<br />
If you are from out of town and are unable to visit the market and would like any of the prints, just email<br />

Some were saved by my grandparents and my parents, then me. <br />
<br />
If only I was thinking of preservation instead of stuffing bags and boxes into the recesses of the attic, many of the pieces in the 'collection' would be in better shape. As for now, I'm just finding and sorting originals of which many will go to the <a href="http://www.ashlandhistsociety.com/Pages/default.aspx">Ashland Historical Society. </a><br />
<br />
Recently found some old news clippings and photos from Ashland, MA. I'll be putting up <br />
scans of things I find for those who are interested and as time allows. Some will be a little fuzzy, ripped, torn<br />
and with stains. <br />
