I was telling them about taking a picture a day for a whole year so decided to snap a photo of them.

341: A Reason to Get out of Bed

The sky got so pretty just before I headed to school.

340: Snow

We had a little snow the other day and it's still hanging around.

339: Mt. Forist

Took this when I got up this morning around 7:15.  Just afterwards, some clouds covered the sun and we barely saw it for the rest of the day.  Bummer!  This is the view from the front of our house.

336: For Sale

This popped up on our lawn today.  Yes, we are selling my parents' house.  We moved here when I was in the 8th grade.  After we sold our motel, my husband and I moved in here for the winters while my parents were in Florida.  After my dad died back in '97, my mom still lived here in the summers while we were at camp. 

I'll be retiring in June and my mom died last August so my siblings and I decided it was time to put the old homestead up for sale.

335: Tuesday November 23

I got in bed and realized I'd forgotten to take a picture.  Did  get up to take one?  Hell, no!  Too tired and Glee was on!

326: I Need a Tripod!

I tried to take a picture of the beautiful full moon tonight but I don't have a tripod and couldn't keep my camera steady enough for the few seconds my shutter was open.  Darn!

I'll have to put that on my Christmas wish list!

323: Sippin' Soda through a Straw

We went to Sinibaldi's with Erin and Kylie tonight.

322: Salt and Glass

I hate this time of the year.  By the time I get out of school, the sun has already slipped behind Mt. Forist and there's barely time to take outdoor photos.  Instead, I have to settle for pictures inside the house.

321: After the Sunset

Not much today.  I took a couple pictures on my way home from school.  The sun had just gone down behind the mountain.  It was only 3:30.  So sad!

320: Layers

Took this when I got downstairs this morning at 6:40.

317: Glen Ellis Falls

On my way to North Conway today I stopped at Glen Ellis Falls.  The weather was beautiful with not a cloud in the sky and the temp was about 60 degrees.

These falls are in Pinkham Notch and are 64 feet high.

316: Dead Beauty

Took a walk through the woods today.  Everything was so pretty with the sun shining.  Not sure what this is but I like all the fuzzies.

315: A Beautiful Day

I went for a vigorous walk with my friend, Dottie, and took this shot from the Botanical Garden on the East Side looking toward St. Anne's Church.

314: Nana Shower

I went to a Nana Shower this evening for Peggy (seated) whose son had a baby boy last month.  I taught at the junior high with her for many years along with Mary (left). The others left to right are Nancy, our school librarian, Gina, a teacher at the junior high, Dottie, who threw the shower, ?, another teacher at the junior high but I don't remember her name, and Dede, the former guidance director at the junior high.

I'd never heard of a Nana Shower but it was a good excuse to get together and have a glass of wine.

313: A Pretty Dawn

I'm cheating.  I didn't take a picture last night but snapped this from the back porch this morning before going to school.

I love the faces Kylie makes when she's playing on the computer.

305: Birches

My mother-n-law painted this picture many years ago.  Tonight she's in the hospital with double pheumonia and bleeding lungs that have to be cauterized.
