I can’t remember the last time I had made the drive up to Bretton Woods, New Hampshire. Nestled amid mountains, rivers, waterfalls and railways – it’s a beautiful location any time of year – and I want to say I had last ventured North for a weekend stay years ago during the very last days […]
With my half days at work rotating with a new quarter and now falling on every Wednesday for the next couple of months, it seemed fitting to celebrate my mid-week freedom with a trip up to Rye, New Hampshire after I wrapped up e-mails and phone calls promptly at noon and closed my laptop for […]

And I’m back! I hope everyone who celebrated last week’s Fourth of July holiday and post-holiday weekend enjoyed yourselves! While I had to work bright and early (from home!) on Friday morning, it was thankfully quiet for most of the day and I was able to get a ton of stuff done in preparation for […]
