"would you, could you, eat them on a train"

We recently took a train ride up Mount Washington, simply beautiful, and so much fun. The Bonus was that we booked a dinner on the train, while not cheap it was a blast. Nothing like a nostalgic train ride an someone else doing the cooking!

Where did summer go? It feels so much like fall today, and as much as I love fall I am not ready to embrace it! The leaves are still green, there is still plenty of veggies in the garden to be picked, my geraniums in my window box's are a blushing pink. There are lots of birds in my feeders that have yet to go South. So what gives? Leave it to my kiddo to come up with the answer... "Mom it is just a dress rehearsal for Fall, the big show comes later" :)

Its an Egg!

We are so very excited this weekend, not because its a three day weekend and we are having so much fun. We are excited because yesterday my son went out to feed the chickens and he found an egg. Finally, our beautiful hens have started laying! Seems like such a mundane thing to get excited about, but around here you would think we just won the lottery!
