Sunday Experiments
Art Experimenting I grabbed some watercolor paper and printed one of my bird drawings onto it. It came out nice overall. I just wasn’t happy with the background color. It came out in bands rather than a seamless print of color. Maybe I need to futz around with the printer settings some more or use…

Weekend Wrap-Up: Slowing It Down
Usually, we’re jam packing in activities for the kiddo and by the end of the day Sunday, I’ll be wiped out. This weekend, we stayed in. I needed it. The apartment was a mess. After getting everything in order, I was able to plop on the couch with my earl grey tea and some salted…

A September Beach Day
It was a perfect beach day in Duxbury yesterday. The parking lot was pretty much empty – also, no usual $25 parking fee. It was warm with a cool breeze. We’re squeezing every last bit of summer as the weather will allow.

Summer in Maine 2025
This was our second summer spent hanging out at Old Orchard Beach. We love to dip our toes into the ice cold New England waters when it’s hot & humid on the sand, return to our favorite spots and discover new sites as well. We also hit up spots in New Hampshire that are along…

Plum Island, MA
We got to the beach at 9AM and left at 3PM. It was nice to listen to the waves, dip our toes into the freezing cold waters when it was getting a bit too warm, walk along the shore and get some nap and reading time in. Summer has officially begun.

My New England Weekend
We had the quintessential New England winter weekend filled with snowboarding and sledding down a hill with fresh snow. Last year, we were hoping to get some snowboard lessons in for the kiddo, but we never made it to the mountain. We had all his gear ready too, most of which he outgrew :/ Snowboarding…

Jack-O-Lanterns Galore
It was a balmy Halloween which made for a more fun and comfortable trick-or-treating experience. Definitely not great cuz global warming but more folks were out and about – little block parties were happening in the street complete with grilling, a classic Ghostbuster music video projected on a giant screen and just an overwhelming sense…
