Well guys, I thought it would never arrive, but finally, spring is upon us! After a crazy winter with snow falls up to my waist, I can finally ditch my drab winter coat and heavy boots and prance around in the sunshine!

In recent news, I've taken the plunge and invested in a Nikon D3100 camera. It should be arriving sometime next week, just in time for my birthday. After over a year of struggling with my cheapo vivitar digital, which is on its last legs, I decided to indulge myself. I'm very excited to mess around with it and renew my enthusiasm for posting more often.

Jeramy snapped these photos for me a few weeks ago when we took a little trip into Peterborough for lunch. I really like walking around and checking out the little shops and now that the weather has improved significantly, many more outdoor excursions are in order. We'll actually be attending a little music festival there called The Thing in the Spring in a few weeks, which will prove to be a good time!If you're in the area, be sure to check out the link and get some tickets!

Happenings

Hi! Fun things going on lately! Trips to Keene,NH, Northampton, MA, and Peterborough, NH have yielded many exciting adventures for Jeramy and I. We saw two shows (William Fitzsimmons at the Starving Artist and Kaki King at The Iron Horse). Side note, we got to meet William, epic beard and all, who upon introducing himself asked Jeramy and I if we had met him before! Obviously we had never met, but yeah I felt cool...perhaps he is a Rosemud Follower. Ha! Jeramy snagged me his signed set list too (p.s. read Jeramy's Blog Timbre Leaf if you were interested in hearing more about the show. You can listen to some of William's tracks there too.) We ate lots of yummy food including falafel and smoked turkey sandwiches with gouda cheese, apples, and walnuts (not in the same sitting to make things clear). There has been plenty of vegging out involved too. We watched The Graduate on Netflix as well as many Dr. Who episodes( Jeramy is succeeding in passing on his obsession with the British Sci Fi show onto me). I finally did my taxes and happily found out that I'm getting a healthy chunk of money back (maybe, just maybe I'll  buy a super fancy camera with my refund...?) . And of course, to top off all this 'fun'ness  we partook in probably my most favorite pastime--- we  perused countless vintage and antique stores where I bought two new pretty springtime frocks. Hooray.

It sure has been a good time and with spring on its way (Yes, I actually spotted a few bulbs sprouting out of the ground proof that my snow shoveling days are numbered...who am I kidding, I don't shovel snow. I leave that to my Dad!) yeah uh so where was I? Oh yes, I do have some fun Boston excursions lined up, hopefully I'll have more to share coming soon!
