Holiday Week report

Katie and I have come up to the Dummerston Church to use WiFi. She is uploading photos she took on the Putney Craft Tour with the Panasonic Lumix SiH camera she has on loan from AbelCine which she is going to enter in the Craft Tour photo competition. Grand Prize is a $50 gift certificate and a night at the fancy Four Columns Inn! Fingers crossed!

Today, Saturday, we slept fairly late,  had a bit of breakfast, and then I made a trip to the landfill in anticipation of a big storm tomorrow and Monday. Our recycle bin was overflowing and it would be that much harder to get done with a foot of snow on the ground. So I did it. When I got back we sort of got organized and then went to Chelsea Royal Diner for brunch. That is always a treat. After brunch, Michael and Amy went for a hike on Wantastiquet Mtn. across the river from Brattleboro, and Ellen, Katie, Gertie and I made a shorter hike, but still a considerable one for me, to the top of Black Mountain. I used ski poles, and made it fine. It was cold - my fingers got really cold on the poles. It was about 27 degrees and very windy.But it was a nice hike.

Here is a photo album of things this week:
