What a great day for a hike!Mike and Cath talked me into my first hike of a 4K during the snow season. Glad I said 'yes'!
I drove through lots of snow - but once north of Franconia Notch is was blue skies and sunshine... albeit 17 degrees f.
I've been playing soccer once a week - but I this was a different kind of workout and I was huffing...
Mike/Cath's friend Bruce came along ... and we 'bare booted' up to Mt Star King (3,900 ft) and then I put on snowshoes as we went on to the main objective: Mt Waumbek (4,007 ft).
I had heard about the Canada Jays that feed out of your hand - but this was a first experience actually having one land!
I'll have to plant one of these photos juxtoposed alongside Brendan's recent hiking photos - just to show him what he's missing - nothing like wearing four layers of clothes to really
feel like one with the environment.

It's so good to see you three together ------- how fortunate that you settled in New England - with Eileen and Meg sort of nearby.
We have no snow - not even leftover piles. Actually, the sun is out, our painting is finished, the wallpaper has only one more strip to be hung:
homemade soup for lunch; how's that for a good day? And Brendan is out of Managua! I celebrate that move. nance
