There is more than one perspective. This guy chose fun. Your choice. #stormof2026 #onceinalifetimestorm #40statestorm #youchoose #princesscheyennebook

Outdoor Winter Bathing What a perfect day for an outdoor bath. This Tufted Titmouse thoroughly enjoyed today’s spa accommodations. Did you know a group is called a banditry or dissimulation? #birds #stormof2026 #birdbath #birdbehavior #princesscheyennebook

How to Revive Your Air Freshener Because my life is riveting, I’m chipping away at a comprehensive pajama review. Meanwhile, let me tell you how I revive solid air fresheners. #reviveairfresheners #helpfultips #househacks #tipsandtricks #princesscheyennebook

The Helpful Snow Creature Part 3 After some searching I think I found its home. It was the perfect size but appeared to be inhabited by industrious, fun-loving humans. It even had some lovely decor on its roof. #newenglandwinters #snow #snowcreatures #shoveling #princesscheyennebook

The Helpful Snow Creature Part 2 The next morning the slush-eater was still there but looking bedraggled. The heavy slush was all gone! I wonder where it came from???? #newenglandwinters #snow #snowcreatures #shoveling #princesscheyennebook

The Helpful Snow Creature Part 1 One night I went out begrudgingly to shovel the driveway, yet again. I was greeted by a mild mannered slush-eater. Feeling grateful. #newenglandwinters #snow #shoveling #snowcreatures #princesscheyennebook

I really like this. Wanted to share.

My cousin Tina’s husband used to take me gliding. I loved the sound and feel of the tow line releasing, the silence, followed by pitching and rolling near the clouds. I remember a woman in a body cast getting a tow up to the sky. #TBT #ThrowbackThursday #Gliding #princesscheyennebook

Here is Ashley again, having arrived somewhere tropical and exotic. She’s entertaining herself by inviting a pelican to perch on her head! #tropicalgetaway #tamepelicans #partnerincrime #princesscheyennebook

I recently helped an elderly woman who slipped on some ice. I told her about YakTrax as a way to stay safer while walking. I always have two pairs handy. Senior centers and living facilities should hand them out. #icysidewalks #dontfallontheice #bestshoecleats #helpfultips #princesscheyennebook

I’m so proud to know writer, producer, 6-time Emmy winner, wildlife conservationist and neighbor Allison Argo. Tusker: Brotherhood of Elephants on premiered Wednesday, January 14 on PBS. #tuskers #wildlife #wildlifedocumentaries #wildlifeconservation #emmyawardsdocumentaries #pbsnature #elephants

Mari says… “Another "reader" at large photo. Artist, Chef, Bon Vivant, Mari Famulari summarily impressed with her copy of Princess Cheyenne, at an East Village Dog-Friendly Cafe!” #manhattan #newyorkcity #wildwoman #princesscheyennebook

Wild Turkey Victim Update I’m happy to report that the victim of last week’s Turkey gang violence is recovering comfortably at home. Although left with a drop foot, said turkey is expected to make a full recovery. #wildturkeys #animalbehaviors #turkeybrutality #nature #princesscheyennebook

Here’s a tip. It isn’t pretty but using painters tape is very effective for those below 20 degree days that Cape Cod isn’t supposed to have. Be sure to cover the hinges. #househacksthatactuallywork #geniushousehacks #howtomakeyourhousewarmer #princesscheyennebook #tips #CapeCodLife #winter

New year, new chapter, new book! I hope you had a wonderful celebration and that 2026 is everything you wish for. It’s a blank page so here’s to your next adventure! Did you swap out your smoke detector batteries? Yeah. Me either. #2026ishere #changeyourbatteries #princesscheyennebook

Try this! I love aiming laser lights up into the trees. When there’s a breeze they twinkle like a galaxy. Auto on/off, weather resistant and fun! #laserlights #outsidelighting #outsidedecor #princesscheyennebook

I’m trapped! Onesies can be hard to climb out of! #skisuits #retroclothes #bestouterwearforwinter #princesscheyennebook

Who uses Hot Hands? When heated gloves are overkill they work really well. I found a way not to waste the heat. I wrap them tightly in Saran Wrap or Glad Cling’n Seal. This makes them a bit more environmentally friendly and doesn’t waste the heat. #besthandwarmers #nowaste #princesscheyennebook

This retro ski suit has Canada Goose beat! Hands down the warmest cold weather wear. I’m surprised CG doesn’t bring them back. People always ask me where I got it. Disclosure: I removed the shoulder pads. #retroskisuit #canadagoose #warmestwinterouterware #princesscheyennebook

It’s all about algorithms. It doesn’t matter where you bought the book. You don’t even have to read the whole thing to review it. Keep it simple. #bookreviews #barnesandnoble #goodreads #amazonbookrankings #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennebook

A wild turkey showed up this morning with a special Christmas dance and wanted me to pass it along. #FeatheredFriends #NatureHumor #princesscheyennebook #wildlife #topchristmasgifts2025 #wildturkeys

Merry Christmas everyone! Thank you for being here for me and my book. The connections, conversations and reunions wouldn’t have happened without your reactions and interest. Without those, where’s the fun? #merrychristmas #grateful #authorslife #princesscheyennebook #topchristmasgifts2025

My partner in crime, Ashley, spotted this at Barnes & Noble Hyannis. No word from them on an event next year in spite of my tenaciousness, but maybe once they hear how much fun I am I’ll get on the schedule. #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyennebook #princesscheyenne #bestmemoirs

Who knew that birds wore costumes too? #bestchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne #authorlucywightman #catstevens #andykaufman #princesscheyennebook

Merry Christmas to all birds!! Wild Birds Unlimited has fresh food in a variety of mixtures. They also offer a great savings plan for people with very hungry birds. #birds #birdseed #wildbirds #birdnerd #princesscheyennebook #princesscheyennechristmas #topchristmasgifts2025

Wild turkey check in! I notice they approach their daily routines with more enthusiasm lately. #FeatheredFriends #NatureHumor #PrincessCheyennebook #CapeCodLife #SouthShoreLiving #NatureOnTheCape #wildturkeys

Thank you to Dana Carney for sending this from the west coast and providing the locations of a few Barnes & Noble stores out in CA for my winter tour. I hope they’ll have me! #bestchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne #authorlucywightman #catstevens #andykaufman #princesscheyennebook

Bird Watchers' General Store in Orleans, MA is a famous Cape Cod destination for birders and those in search of unique and birdy gifts. Check out their website and Mike’s comedic writing. Not sure why he hasn’t landed on SNL. #bestbirdinggifts #capecodchristmasshopping #bestchristmasgifts2025

Sharing some of the fun from Barnes & Noble Hingham. First and foremost it was a blast and books vanished! Connecting with readers is a unique experience. I love it! #barnesandnoble #barnesandnoblehingham #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyennebook

A lot goes into an author signing For example, I spray my boas with hairspray. It would be so rude to leave loose feathers all over a Barnes & Noble store. #barnesandnoblehingham #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennebook #princesscheyennechristmas #bestchristmasgifts2025

Making winter fun! Most people don’t use salt on Cape Cod and even though I shoveled 5 times, the ice remains. #capecodwinters #icyroads #makesomethingfun #CapeCodLife #princesscheyennebook #bestchristmasgifts2025

SONG OF THE DAY: The Bazilliions, “Similes and Metaphors” #wsayo Similes use “like” or “as” and metaphors need none of that They just say exactly what they want to say “110ft Statue of Liberty replica comes crashing down as huge winds hit Brazilian city” (Daily Mail) m.youtube.com/watch?v=uoSB...

Cape Cod winters are proving to be anything but mild! #CapeCodLife #capecodwinters #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyennebook #princesscheyennechristmas #bestchristmasgifts2025

Princess Cheyenne books flew out the door last night. Gone! I left a few signed copies just in case. I am beyond grateful to Barnes & Noble. I am forever a loyal fan. #barnesandnoblehingham #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennebook #bestchristmasgifts2025

This surprise hasn’t happened to me, where I walk into a bookstore and see Princess Cheyenne but it was spotted by Carysue in Chatham last night and deservedly front-facing! #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennebook #princesscheyennechristmas #bestchristmasgifts2025

What a surreal experience to have three members of Alash appear during a Bela Fleck show. Have you ever heard throat singers? They’re like birds and can produce harmony in one voice. #tuvanthroatsinging #holidayperformance #throatsinging #topchristmasgifts2025

Holiday fun🎄at Barnes & Noble, Hingham, Derby Street, Saturday, 12/13 at 5 with author Lucy Wightman, celebrating her unique memoir Princess Cheyenne. A perfect gift! (Reaction photos encouraged when unwrapped!) #barnesandnoble #barnesandnoblehingham #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne

Holiday shopping made easy at Barnes & Noble Hingham at the Derby Street Shops. Join me there this Saturday, Dec. 13 at 5 PM, for a festive book signing. #barnesandnoble #barnesandnoblehingham #topchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne

A heated birdbath can help our feathered friends through the winter as water is difficult to find. The turkeys seem appreciative. And innovative! #wildturkeys #heatedbirdbaths #bestchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyennebook

Johanny couldn’t have been more helpful on a mobbed Saturday night in Boston’s Theatre District at the W Lounge. #bostontheatredistrict #princesscheyennechristmas #bestchristmasgifts2025 #princesscheyenne #authorlucywightman #catstevens #andykaufman #princesscheyennebook

A fascinating display by a quirky, chatty, spastic moth. Although my macro camera lens was one of my favorites, the iPhone does a great job. #wintermoths #winterlife #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennechristmas #princesscheyennebook

My friend Leah never disappoints! #bestchristmasgifts2025 #funnychristmas #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennechristmas #princesscheyennebook

My friend Leah found these holiday glasses which I think are a hoot. Leah is 80 something going on 40 something and is full of fun and wit. #princesscheyennechristmas #princesscheyenne #funnychristmas #bestchristmasgifts2025

For a limited time (through the holidays) when you thank your Amazon driver through Alexa or on the app, the company gives that driver $5. So just say, “Alexa, thank my driver.” It’s only 4 words! #thankmydriver #Amazon #amazondelivery #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennechristmas

Giving the Princess Cheyenne book for Christmas will surprise everyone! #princesscheyenne #princesscheyennebook #princesscheyennechristmas #bestchristmasgifts2025
