Well it's Friday the 13th here in Southern NH, the temperature is 0°F, and the air feels like -22°F. #nosweat Continue Reading...
I agree Lord Byron
There Is Pleasure In The Pathless Woods There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more, From these our interviews, in which I steal From all I may be, or have been before, To mingle with the Universe, and feel What I can ne'er express, yet Continue Reading...
Some Roads Must Remain Open
A little snow doesn't stop us; at least, not for very long. Our 14 year-old was on the ice, Bruins game on the radio, the twins were playing in (as well as eating) the snow, and I was taking care of the fire. The stars were bright in the clear winter sky, and I still love winter. Continue Reading...
Cozy White
I venture out into another cold winter's night, Warmed by memories and this reality of cozy white. Continue Reading...
Thanks for this place
The wind whips the snow against the windows I hide behind Now snow drained clouds drift overhead, flat light I find Then I notice in the distance, blue sky encroaches this scene With it, the cold icy winds bring air so crisp and clean I watch the mercury in red, drop beneath this crystal sky To the Lord I give thanks for this place, warm and dry Continue Reading...
Surprise! More Snow!
It's not a big storm, but it's causing a mess on the roads this morning. We've got 4.5 additional inches of snow this morning. There's just no more room to put this snow anywhere. I'm without a vehicle this week, so the twins and I are home. I'm off to clear the 400' driveway so we can get oil delivered today. Meanwhile, the twins are snuggled in watching cartoons.

Snowy Scene

After several hours spent with wrenches, a crowbar, a hammer, and a ratchet set this afternoon, I got the impeller blade in my snow blower bent back into shape, along with the casing. I was able to Continue Reading...
Landscape
Photography 101. I took this picture with my phone yesterday. This is water in a couple of different forms, on top of a body of water. Glen Lake, Goffstown, NH. Continue Reading...
Deer Driveway
While looking at a deer that was grazing alongside our driveway this morning, Jacqueline asked me how old I thought the deer was. I said, "Oh it's probably two years old." She yelped loudly, "TWO YEARS OLD!?!? I've never heard of that before!" Continue Reading...
Water
Today in Photography 101 the theme for my photo is water. To me this scene is peaceful to look at and to listen too. This is Black Brook, the short river that runs near my house. This little river empties into the Merrimack River, which at one time, housed the mills that made up the textile capital of the world a century ago. Continue Reading...
