The air is warmer and the days are lengthening! We “spring forward” in just a few weeks and soon the warm coats and snow pants will be packed away. (But make sure to leave your boots out for another month or two due to mud season!) I just booked a family tour at a new-to-meContinue reading “It’s March!”

Happy Friday!
How was your week? My kids were home on school break and we safely saw some friends and had fun outside. The weather is beginning to turn in New Hampshire and our local outdoor skating pond is closed for the season. While I’m excited for spring, I’m not ready to be done with winter. StillContinue reading “Happy Friday!”
What Does Texas Tell Us About Our Future?
By now I’m sure you’ve seen the incredible photos coming out of Texas due to icestorms, freezing temperatures, loss of heat and undrinkable water. People were being told to boil their water before drinking but couldn’t do that because they had no electricity or gas to turn on the stove. I don’t need to tellContinue reading “What Does Texas Tell Us About Our Future?”
Do You Participate in Politics?
(Short on time? Skip down to the “Action Here” section.) I was never a hugely political person. Sure, I always voted (anyone else get teary as they “pull the lever”?) and knew who the major players were, but I rarely paid attention to the day-to-day workings. Until November 2016 happened. I remember watching the newsContinue reading “Do You Participate in Politics?”
Right to REPAIR! Make your voice heard TODAY!
***Short on time? Skip right to the ACTION HERE paragraph to learn how to voice your opinion tomorrow! A few years ago, my iPhone stopped charging. It was a very old phone (inherited from my mom) and I suspected the battery might have died. I brought it into Best Buy, waited in the Geek line,Continue reading “Right to REPAIR! Make your voice heard TODAY!”
How Was Your Week?
Pretty good week here, all things considered. I’m happy that the weather is seasonally cold and even managed to ski and sled a bit this week. Winter sports can really help you get through January and February. A perfect day for me involves some kind of outside, physical activity, followed by resting and relaxing withContinue reading “How Was Your Week?”
Save our Marsh! Attend the Concord Hearing TODAY
We received an email yesterday from a reader letting us know that the Hoit Road Marsh Wildlife Management Area in Concord is in danger. NH House Bill 571 seeks to repeal recent prohibition of OHRV use on the Marsh, opening the vulnerable ecosystem up to motorcycles and other motorized vehicles. There will be a hearing on HBContinue reading “Save our Marsh! Attend the Concord Hearing TODAY”
It’s Snowing!
As I sit down to write our weekly news highlights, the snow falls steadily outside my window. Don’t know about you, but when the weather acts appropriately, I feel a lot calmer. Once we are released from quarantine (yes, that happened to us this week), we have lots of outside winter plans. A local momContinue reading “It’s Snowing!”
Dreaming of Spring: Planning your 2021 Garden
This Monday was Imbolc, a Pagan celebration marking the midpoint between deep winter and first spring. At Imbolc, I always try to sort through my seeds from last year, check over my garden maps, and start dreaming of spring. For some of you, gardening may be old hat and you may already be pouring overContinue reading “Dreaming of Spring: Planning your 2021 Garden”
Random Musings…
I will share that I haven’t been able to think about something full and concrete to write about today. To me, the best work is the most honest work, so I’m staying true to that belief. Rather than forcing a subpar post, I thought I’d be truthful and rather offer a few things I’ve beenContinue reading “Random Musings…”
