"LFoD": NH's State Motto

Yea! The internets are working tonight, so and I can finally upload the pictures I found last night.

BTW, we go to the Doc on Thursday, and he's supposed to do a Doppler exam on Baby.


We saw many beautiful waterfalls! This is one from the Flume Gorge area.


This is in front of Jackson Falls about 0.5 miles from our hotel. Absolutely beautiful!

From the top of Bald Mountain, looking over at Cannon mountain (on the right). This was our first day of partial sunshine, and it got a wee bit warm (~80F) hiking up the mountain.

"Live Free or Die"

We got to take a wonderful little trip up to NH where we found much beauty and enjoyment. My internet is being picky, so I'll put more pictures of our trip in the near future, but here's a start:

Lake Winnipesaukee

Cookie's first round of chowdah!

The 1st Photograph

Here's the lil' "guy"! Seeing the movement in real time was amazing! You could see his little arms and legs moving around, and he even rotated for us. I'm kicking myself for not taking a video camera to the appointment...

Flower Admiration

Our Red Rocket Crepe Myrtle is on fire! I'm glad we held out for this cultivar...

Our 7ft tall sunflower has finally decided to open up. The cool thing is all of his little buddies are soon to open up as well. CP finally agrees that they are pretty.

Glacier Spotting

A few weeks ago we were roughing it in Alaska. Cookie Pockets found a bear.


The tall peak is Mount Saint Elias (the second highest mountain in both the United States and Canada [18,009 feet]). It's ~40 miles in the distance.


Hubbard Glacier, the longest tidewater glacier in the US with a calving face 6 miles long. That's right, six-miles long, although we are only seeing 3-4 miles wide here, due to the island and land on the right hand side.

We're Growing Things

Cookie Pockets holding the largest zucchini we'd ever seen!!! The yellow squash was a good size, but man, that zucchini was huge! Much bigger than the peanut she's carrying...

Our garden on 7/11/08

Fresh from the garden when we got back from AK. They may look big, but the bell peppers are only about the size of golf balls.

Coming soon to a blog near you...

Stay tuned...
