Winter is not a favorite season for me - drafty house, two weekends of snow with more snow to arrive on Monday, and 30°F (-1°C) today is a warm day. Thus, I look for warmth in any venue. So forShadow Shot Sunday 2, I look for warm shadows in the central fireplaces at the 1698 David Humphreys House in Ansonia. Warm embers and squash pie add the psychological warmth to me at least...
I have been nominated to serve on the Board of the Derby Historical Society, caretakers of the Humphreys House. So, I combed through our pics to create a slideshow of activities there...
These lovely warm scenes are enchanting. And the connection with history adds more appeal. Congrats on your appointment. Sounds like an interesting role.

Great shots! I didn't know you could 'bake' a pie in a Dutch oven. I guess that's why they're called ovens!
Duh......
I may have to try this technique out someday.
I haven't seen any Dutch oven, must be nice to bake or cook in it.
Loved your slide show (& the big band sound!! Benny Goodman?). Congratulations, it looks a great place.
Just looking at that fire makes me feel a tad warmer, Ralph! ;)
I do like the warmth of these scenes, and I'm always ready for a piece of pumpkin pie!
Cemetery Shadows
The pumpkins with apples made my mouth water!
I can smell these tasty delights from here!
What a delightful post! It certainly looks like a wonderful warm place to be.
