Easter in New England

1150/17th April 2022 Spring in New England is like riding a seesaw. 26 degrees (79F) one minute, hail the next. If anyone is having an Easter parade, they are likely to have their bonnet blown away. To be precise, New York is not in New England, having been colonized by the Dutch. But we are … Continue reading Easter in New England →

more surprises…

16th August 2021 Some surprises are more welcome than others. When Grant got home the other day after taking the car to be serviced, I could tell from his whole stance, never mind his face, that he was displeased.

Venturing out

For the first time in over two months, yesterday, I was persuaded to take a ride with Grant, on his weekly shopping expedition. I had expressed interest in adding a shelf to my bathroom wall and Grant thought it would be better to find one locally, rather than shop online, always my preference!
