We had a friend visiting for the last two weekends (hence the sudden photo dump now that she’s gone), so we were out and about doing a few different things we’d never done before. One was the Conway Scenic Railroad, out of Conway, New Hampshire, up in the White Mountains. We took the Notch […]

I’ve started a new blog over here, to try and utilize all of the plant pictures I’ve been taking since I first got a digital camera. Not to mention, researching and writing things up fills a happy little place in my soul. I’m aiming to post something new every week. We’ll see how it

The last week of July was my vacation with the BF, and since he had a family reunion, we headed over to Vermont and the adjacent area of New York. (My personal vacation is coming up in September, and it’s completely awesome – as I’ll be able to post about in October.) A lot of

We headed over to Vermont this past weekend, and spent some time meandering the backroads to our traditional trip to the Northshire Book Store in Manchester. It was the perfect weekend for that kind of drive. It was cold, but clear, with that insanely blue sky that only winter can manage.

For New Year’s, we headed over to Vermont, to visit the BF’s family. They’re smack in the middle of the region that was badly effected by Hurricane Irene. Their town (Bennington), was only minorly effected – mostly by the temporary loss of the water supply coming out of the mountains, but the route we take
