Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
I said it. Didn’t I say it? Didn’t I just say that you can’t trust spring to arrive in April in New England? I did – I said it on Monday! Technically, I said wrote that post on Saturday night, but I was right. On Monday morning, it started snowing. When I took Maddie out... Continue Reading →
If we were having a beer, you would be pondering the ecosystem. “So, how much snow did you get?” “Zero to forty-eight inches.” “What?
