A Nor’ Easter of a Trip!

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….

Even my car has been decorated with stockings and…
