It has been such a long time since I have been “here!” We’ve added grandchildren to the family; Covid happened; we moved from Nova Scotia to New Hampshire. Three years ago! Such a journey! These days have been filled with lots of family adventures and slow progress making new friends, but we are finding our way and enjoying the days.

From Spring through Fall, we’ll pack a lunch and load up the kayaks. We have a little island in the middle of the lake where we pull up to eat our lunch then continue on around the lake to the beach for a swim or a cold dip.

In the winter we have found a little nearby ski hill to get outside and enjoy the fresh air and a little exercise.

I have found a nice walking route that is about a 3 mile loop with lots of trees, pretty houses, and opportunities to chronicle the changing seasons.

Still one of our favorite moments is sitting on the patio with our morning coffee or a glass of wine as the sun is setting.

As we have come to call this place “Home,” we are also ready to head out on some new adventures. This September we celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary. And to mark the occasion we are taking that long promised “Mediterranean Honeymoon.”

Stay tuned for an update on our travels in Spain, Turkey, Greece and Tuscany.
