Out with the old and in with the new
Happy New Year! Now you all know that my dear Mr. Ken loves all things technology. So, not surprisingly he treated himself to the latest Google Pixel phone. Never mind that his old phone was only a year old. And he treated that thing very carefully. Now, if this makes Mr. Ken happy, then I’m […]
Happy Christmas!
December 24, 2025
This beautiful and festive flower arrangement was sent to me by my dear mother-in-law. She always knows the perfect gift! The two cute figures are Christmas Snow Babies. These were from my Mom.

Vermont – Old Buildings
November 19, 2025
Aside from beautiful nature scenes, Vermont has a lot of old abandoned buildings. Here are few that we came across. This old Getty Station was reborn as a skating rink for a few years. It then shut down. Since it is located right next to the West River, it is tough to build something else […]
Vermont – Walking Scenes
November 12, 2025
I not only saw pretty flowers along my walk, but some interesting other things. Of course, I wasn’t surprised to see a barn. 🙂 And some beautiful horses. A magnificent heron perched high in a tree. Vermont has lots of wilderness and lots of bears. This sign caught my eye. Mountains everywhere you look. After […]
