Sunday in Vermont (even though it’s now Wednesday)

Wednesday, August 12, 2009

As I write this, I have no idea when I will get close to an internet connection. I last posted from Long Trail Brewery, in Bridgewater Corners, Vermont. It was a bit hectic, and I had already fallen somewhat under the influence of their delightful brews. (Try the sampler, if you ever make it to […]

Hello from Vermont

Sunday, August 9, 2009

At the moment I’m at the Long Trail Brewery (featuring free Wi-Fi), drinking Belgian White. Having no idea what is going on out there, I will decline from attempting any political comment. I do understand from my wife’s Iphone (my Blackberry is even more useless up here than in Connecticut) that, after a gorgeous day […]

First Fruits (or nearly so)

Tuesday, July 7, 2009

Some garlic from our garden. Not quite the first of the harvest. They looked good in color, but I thought they looked even better in black and white. (Click on the picture for a larger view). Speaking of pictures of the black and white variety, I recently had a birthday, and my son gave me […]

Peonies

Sunday, June 7, 2009

Stuck at home today, as my bicycle is in the hospital. The first 10 speed I ever bought cost me $100.00. Over the years they’ve grown increasingly complex and expensive. The gear levers on my current bike, which are integrated somehow with the brake lever, simply stopped functioning. I don’t even know how they work, […]

Signs of Summer

Sunday, May 24, 2009

I have written before about our little pond, which sits nestled next to an ancient granite “patio”, which appears to have been constructed before people even used that term. The patio was built from the granite formerly quarried on site; the pond was constructed out of plastic. At the present time most of the pond […]

Mother’s Day Excursion

Sunday, May 10, 2009

This year my wife and I decided to celebrate Mother’s Day by taking a little trip, so Saturday Morning (this is written Saturday night, but the wireless connection in our bed and breakfast went out, so it likely won’t be posted until Sunday) we set out for the Berkshires, slowly wending our way through Northwestern […]

Easter Pictures

Sunday, April 12, 2009

This is a holiday, and though it’s decidedly low key, I’m taking the day off from thinking, so I’m posting a few pictures documenting the ever approaching (but perhaps never arising) dawn of real Spring. You know, with reasonably warm weather, birds, flowers and sunshine. Here along the coast we suffer through many years when […]

Spring Progress Report

Sunday, April 5, 2009

I can’t really bring myself to think about politics today, so I’m posting a few pictures. One of the nice things about blogging is that ultimately you can put up anything you want. This year I’m thinking about regularly posting pictures of my wife’s garden. Right now, the only thing growing is the garlic, which […]

3 more days

Wednesday, March 18, 2009

I took this picture on Sunday. These are Snowdrops, which I believe usually come out earlier than this time of year, though I’d defer to my wife on that if she were around to ask. I’m posting this just because, with all the bad news on the political front, we can still take solace from […]
