Well, hello spring, nice to see you! #spring2021 #gardenlife #sedum
It's the weekend - do you know where your chickens are? #chickensofinstagram #chickenstory

Happy Birthday to Wally - he is working on his birthday protecting the neighborhood and will soon go outside on his hourly squirrel patrol. #wallysworld
Grateful we have artists in our community, and local leadership that supports and encourages a creative community. See Nestor Madalengoitia's larger than life nurse on Market Street in Poughkeepsie; an artistic tribute to our medical professionals. Dutchess County Executive Marcus Molinaro acknowledged the importance of the arts in these times to provide solace and comfort. Sending appreciation to him and all the medical workers who continue to work long hours to battle COVID 19. #artivist #nestormadalengoitia #DutchessCountyArts #dutchesscounty #Poughkeepsiearts #poughkeepsie #artistswillleadtheway #HudsonValleyArts @nestorartstudio @mjmolinaro #healthcareworkers #grateful🙏
