Between MECA and The Holly Ready Gallery in the State Street Theater building on the corner of High St. and Congress, I was fortunate enough to encounter a May Basket and become the delighted recipient! Check out: http://vintagepointe.blogspot.com/
At the Holly Ready Gallery I was excited to see, up close, her vibrant, luminous, exploding with color, paintings of sky, sea and a few landscapes. http://www.hollyready.com/ Visiting her site is a wonderful journey but you can also watch her at work in the gallery located at 608 Congress Street.
My evening concluded at Restaurant 555. YES. They do have the best burger in town!
See you walking about.
