Tomorrow morning I rise bright eyed and bushy tailed (maybe) for a trip to three New England states: Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. One of the reasons why I take an extended trip around this time of year is because I get two holidays in close proximity to each other: Lincoln’s Birthday and President’s Day….

A Tale of Two Candles
I left New York on a freezing cold morning, just before sunrise. I had to stop by a gas station first to recheck my tires, since one of them had driven over a screw sometime in the past two weeks. 6 years I drive my car, including a 14 state trip in October, and I…
Time to break out the thermal underwear
Single digit temps. That’s what’s waiting for me when I arrive in New Hampshire this Thursday. I knew I should have invested in a Timberland wardrobe instead of donning Banana Republic winter coats and blowing kisses to myself in the mirror. Ah well. I may get frost bite and die of hypothermia, but if I…

Driving into a storm for funsies, cuz that’s just how I roll, babe.
So hey, I finally took the plunge and made a reservation for Boston, just in time to see a forecast for a storm coming to New England Tuesday night, a forecast that was confirmed juuuuuust late enough to ensure I couldn’t cancel my reservation in time. Yaaay! But whatever, I was born during violent weather,…
From Neverland to La-La Land!
First thing I did when I got into work today was excitedly ask people what they thought of the Scott Brown election. The typical conversation went like this: “So did you hear about the election in Massachusetts last night???” Blank look. “Um, you have heard about the election between Scott Brown and Martha Coakley right,…
