February 5, 2025

Comments Off on Sedona, Arizona – Red Rock Country

Mr. Ken and I took a fabulous trip to Sedona, Arizona a few months ago. We went on a Road Scholar tour. Road Scholar is the old Elderhostel. Road Scholar provides educational travel opportunities for adults. We flew into Phoenix and it was about a 2 hour trip to Sedona. The thing that stands out […]

Random Vermont pictures

January 29, 2025

I really enjoy writing these blog posts about Vermont. When I look at the pictures I took, it is as though I am reliving the vacation. The place we stay is lovely and very comfortable. It is nice to go back there and just chill, after exploring different parts of Vermont during the day. It’s […]

Things that make me smile

January 22, 2025

January is a tough month in New England. It is cold, it is dark and there is really nothing to look forward to. I did find two things that made me smile last week. Flowers I love have plants and flowers in the house, especially in the winter. Our amaryllis plant bloomed last week and […]

It’s the little things

January 15, 2025

So if you read my blog last week, Down for the count, you know I recently had shoulder surgery. I’ve been through it before, with my other shoulder so I know that it is a long haul, but if I do everything my doctor says and keep up with the physical therapy, my shoulder will […]

Down for the count

January 8, 2025

In December last year, I had to have surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff in my left shoulder. I had the same surgery for my right shoulder in 2021, so I knew what to expect. All I can say is ouch! You wear the sling 24/7, even while sleeping. Four times a day, you […]

Happy New Year!

January 1, 2025

What better way to celebrate the New Year than with a chipmunk! Of course, our little dears are in for their “big sleep,” so we won’t be seeing them for a while. I don’t know about you, but I’m not really doing New Years resolutions anymore. I tended to have a long list of resolutions […]

Happy Christmas!

December 25, 2024

December in New England is dark and cold, but all the pretty and festive Christmas decorations make it bearable. A good friend, Cloice, sent us this beautiful Christmas card. The cute little snow angels on either side were my Mom’s. My Mom was not a materialistic person, but she loved these little snow angels. I […]

Peaceful walks in Vermont

Comments Off on Peaceful walks in Vermont

As you can see, I love Vermont. One big reason is because it is so peaceful there and you are surrounded by nature. The place where we stayed is located on a nice dirt road, which was perfect for my morning walks. Here’s how I started my day; the view from our kitchen window. Here’s […]

Comments Off on Stratton Village – summer fun

Even though Stratton Village and Mountain are known for winter fun, there’s lots to do there in the summer too. One glorious sunny afternoon we decided to make a trip up to Stratton Mountain. Even though winter is their busy season, there is lots of stuff going on in the summer as well. As with […]

Lovely Grafton and Chester Vermont

Comments Off on Lovely Grafton and Chester Vermont

Grafton Vermont is the quintessential Vermont town. I just love visiting here. The townspeople take a lot of pride in their town; there are always beautiful baskets of flowers along the road. Even the trip there is so “Vermont.” The road to Grafton is mainly a dirt road. Actually, over 50% of the roads in […]
