Black and white photo? Or just winter.
I love to take snow photos but making them interesting is a little difficult. After a while they all begin to look the same.
I lived in Hopkinton, NH during one of the dreariest years of my life (“so far” as Homer would say), and this little pond was on the land at the house I rented.
We saw deer, beavers, turkeys and bears while we lived there. The kitchen had big windows that looked out on this pond and my son had fun playing in the water and catching frogs and other little creatures in the nice weather.
We had record snow fall that year and this is one of the pictures I still have.
Downtown Antrim Fire
I woke up and put the tv on this morning to hear “fire in Antrim”.
I live in a very small town and one of the larger buildings along Main Street was destroyed by fire overnight. The broadcast was coming live from Main Street and when I first saw the building I thought it was the Inn.
The building that burned is the yellow one on the left in my photo (taken in May 2009) below. Story Here.
This view is pretty much all of our Main Street and now one of the larger buildings is gone. I am heading down to the little store this afternoon and will see about getting some photos.
The building housed a hair salon, bakery and an apartment I think.
The picture below is from Wikipedia and is a c.1915 postcard.
I am not sure if the building on the left is the same one…?

Nature’s Fluffy Seed Pods
Fall passes all too soon. Not that I dislike winter, but getting out and walking is a bit more difficult. I try to be outside every day in Fall.
Just up the street is a hill with a field full of interesting growth all year. White Daisies covered the roadside in summer and tall weeds like this one came along in Fall.
It’s an animal crossing area and I saw moose tracks in the snow this winter. Quite awesome. I’ve never seen a moose, just tracks a few times in mud and snow.

Post #100 and Changes
Maybe it’s that I haven’t had sun in my yard since September or a number of other things, but this blog bores me so I am changing it. It just happens to be post #100.
I am busy with my new stores now that wedding season is starting up again and I don’t have time to try and come up with interesting things to say about a very uninteresting life.
So, for a while at least, posts will be random and written mostly for myself.
Rich and poor have this in common:
The Lord is the Maker of them all.
