Yesterday, on the first day of my two-week vacation, I was prepared to stop and to appreciate this sign in Beverly, Massachusetts, USA.

Be prepared to
- stop,
- look,
- listen,
- think,
- feel,
- connect,
- change,
- move on, and
- encounter lots of photos from the South and the North shores of Boston.






























Be prepared to stop while you’re in the middle of creating a blog post in order to go to the dentist and then take your cat to the vet because, after all, what else should you be doing on your vacation?
Be prepared to stop, take a breath, and share the rest of your photos from yesterday:

















Be prepared to stop and tell me what photos you liked best and why.
Be prepared to stop and enjoy this tune by the Zombies, stopping and appearing soon at the Cabot in Beverly.
I’m always prepared to stop and express my thanks to those who help me create these daily blog posts and to all those who read them, including you!
