It was an unexpectedly warm and sunny Christmas day after a week of rain. Although we had a white Thanksgiving, no such luck for Christmas here in NH this year. From what I’ve read we should have been in Hawaii instead. A warm day at home and in our hearts, with family and lots of cooking.…
You never know what Autumn will be like here in always unpredictable New Hampshire. Will we have an Indian summer? When will the first frost come? Will it be a rainy or dry season? will the colors be vivid and how long will they last? How long can we hold out before turning on the…
Sometimes I forget what a rural state I live in, being only 45 minutes north of Boston and living in New Hampshire’s Queen City. However, Autumn is my favorite time of year here and it’s the best time of year to get out of town and enjoy the states scenery. The leaves are only beginning…
Happy 4th of July, 2014!

Where have I been; in a cave, under a rock or in an igloo? Temperatures in the single digits keep the door closed.

It started on October 31st, 2011, but then it went away. For 3 months I have listened to my son complain about the lack of winter this year, you see for him winter means snow. As for myself, I was perfectly happy with the mild weather, not needing to shovel or dig the cars out…
Oct. 27, 2011 – I get a call from my daughter who’s in college near Albany, NY. “Mom it’s snowing!”, “You’re kidding, right?” I responded. A couple hours later we had a little snow dusting as well, just a little. Oct. 28, 2011 – We woke up to see that the grass & cars were…

For some people summer may evoke memories of lazy days as a child idling the time away, flying kites & riding bikes, going to the park or the beach, or hanging out with friends. Oh wait, that was me as a kid. Summer was really hot (in Florida), we competed for the best tan. But…
