With just over two months to go until our section hike of the southern Vermont portion of the Appalachian Trail/Long Trail, David wanted us to get in a little bit more of a strenuous hike. What I wasn’t prepared for was 12 miles of up and down and over 8 hours hiking. Needless to say, … Continue reading Hiking Killington Mountain
I think 2018 is shaping up to be the year of hiking! We’ve been up Mount Wachusett, Mount Greylock, and now we can add Mount Watatic to that list. David suggested we go up to Vermont, but considering the hot weather was on its way, I wanted to keep it close to home and not … Continue reading Hiking Mt. Watatic
This past weekend we really lucked out with some gorgeous weather. It was in the 80's on Sunday but the humidity was low and there was a lovely breeze. How to take advantage of such a glorious day?? Hiking of course! When David and I were first dating, we would go on a lot of … Continue reading Hiking Wachusett Mountain

So thank you to any and all viewers that I have out there! Whoa, … Continue reading Exploring Tiny Houses in Vermont

But when it comes down to it, that’s not who I am. I love making nice dinners … Continue reading A Lovely Sunday Dinner
In the fall, we love to go apple picking. In the summer, we’ve actually never done anything (in terms of fruit picking). But since having Eleanor, we find ourselves wanting to experience more, if nothing more than to get her involved in outdoor activities. This weekend was beautiful and after a quick search, I found … Continue reading Strawberry Muffins
I think I've said this in the past, but I absolutely love how involved my place of work is in the surrounding community. A couple of weekends ago it was the Herring Run 5K, and yesterday we went to Charlestown for their Touch-a-Truck event. Since Eleanor is only 13 months old, she wasn't super interested … Continue reading Charlestown Touch-a-Truck
