  • holts

    I completed what was probably my last apres-work ride of the season this past week. By the time I was back in the parking lot the stars were out and the moon was high. So I decided to transition to running (blech). There is a beautiful network of trails between campus and the river called […]

  • peeping

    We drove up to Lake Willoughby this afternoon to peep some leaves and see a part of Vermont we’d never seen before. It’s actually only a tiny bit further north than Burke, which is a favorite of ours for skiing, snowshoeing and biking. The leaves are in full effect just a little further north of […]

    We went looking for eggs in the woods today. I used to hike this mountain pretty regularly when I could view it from my bedroom window. There were flurries, chilly NW winds, and some treacherous ice flows. Spring is not around the corner.

  • a few shots

    I was able to con Amy behind the wheel of WRX last weekend. People say she looks serious, but I say there’s a slight smirk there. My amaryllis is going gang busters. The moon was large and in charge this evening.

  • in bloom

    Amy handed me her Amaryllis when I first started this new job, after I asserted that my office space was barren and lonely. It had been given to her at some point and for whatever reason it seemed stuck in the hibernating bulb state as it sat in her office for months. So it was […]
