I wanted to share with you a few images from an outing I took on Tuesday evening. The Exeter Brass Band was playing at the bandstand and it was high time I made time to go see them! After all, it's been a tradition in Exeter, NH since 1847 so you know they've got to be doing something right. Wonderful old traditions and New England go hand in hand.

You can't tell from my photo but there was a good crowd filled with people of all ages. The weather was perfect for an evening of outside entertainment.

A fellow reveler of the entertainment

The band was wrapping things up when I decided to stroll around in hopes of getting a few decent sunset images. As I wandered over String bridge I couldn't help but notice the sunset on the river. Purples, pinks, yellows, and golds all meshed together to form the perfect palette.


Then I turned around to look up river but was not expecting to see this . . .

It was a most delightful evening : )

What I love so much about your blog Sharon is that I am transported with your writing to one of the most beautiful states in our nation. I have always dreamed of visiting your state and will some day soon.
I could almost feel myself standing there listening to the band (I love a brass band) and strolling around taking it all in.
Thank you for your beautiful blog and your friendship.

What a lovely series!! I can't decide if my favourite is the dog, sitting at attention, bathed in the golden light of evening, or the moon above the river...
What a glorious day indeed! Wonderful sunset/moonrise photos! I hope to go to a town green concert tonight and I hope the weather is as good!
It looks like it was a most delightful evening, indeed, Sharon! Your sunset photos are sublime and how magical to catch the full moon rising. Love it!

My heart belongs in New Hampshire and Maine. Great photos as usual. Love the last one. Wish I could be there!
My friend and I recently wandered around Exeter and wondered why we hadn't done it sooner.
I love the shot of the falls - wow!
