The list of things that I think are special could go on and on. Today I just want to mention a few...First that today is my Dad's birthday. He would have been 98 years old, as it was he lived to be 91. Not bad at all. I miss him almost every day especially when I remember his attitude about life. I think he was saying do what makes you happy long before it was cool to say that. He didn't let too much bother him and when you needed help, support, encouragement or an understanding ear, he was there. He had a great sense of humor and a determination and will stronger then any I've encountered over the years. Happy Birthday dad, thanks for looking out!
Oh, and another thing I think is special......waking up to a black bear rummaging through your garbage first thing in the morning. So call me crazy. I feel immensely fortunate to be living in an area where wild life rules. I like the fact that I have to learn to live with nature and not the other way around. Now don't get me wrong, I was a little scared by this big black critter who could have easily made breakfast out of me. That didn't stop me from going outside in my nightshirt to watch him drag the garbage into the woods across the street!
There are so many things that are special about New Hampshire. The clean air, the incredible clean water in the lake, the mountains,the flowers the wild life and the friendly down to earth people who respect nature and privacy. The peace and quiet here is worth the fact that Internet access is hit or miss, mostly miss. So I don't blog as often....oh well, anyone who is reading can use their imaginations....that's what I intend to do here.
" Ah yes,I'll have 6 eggs over easy, a side of bacon some ham and a short stack. I like my coffee hot and black please."
