Does anyone know where this photo was taken? I finally synced my phone with my computer, after not having synced the two of them for months. In July, friends of ours and we went to visit this area and absolutely … Continue reading →

Day 29 – Look again

Posted on October 29, 2014 by lookingglassletters

Day 28 – The Driving Range

Posted on October 28, 2014 by lookingglassletters

I took this photo last year in Bethel, Maine, when I was at a women’s nordic ski weekend with my running friends. I’m not sure if you can see what the sign says, or rather, what’s behind the sign, but … Continue reading →

Posted on October 21, 2014 by lookingglassletters

Over the weekend my siblings came to visit. It was a lot of fun having them here, and we did a lot of driving around checking out the New England foliage for the middle of October. On Saturday, we drove … Continue reading →
