What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas; so goes the slogan. That seems to suggest, that your good time should remain a secret. I suppose if you’re hiding something that may work, but I’ve got a secret that I am going to share. The Flamingo Hotel is more than just a place to stay and…
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!
It’s the New Year, and what better way to get things going then a girls trip to Las Vegas to celebrate our friend’s birthday. Most of the time, we have driven, but this time we decided to fly. I’m a “sit at the window” person because on any given flight, you can see such spectacular…
It’s Been a Good Year!
It has indeed been a very good year for me. As I look through my picture library I am reminded of my adventures, good fortune, and wonderful friends. I’m a sports fan! Basketball and Baseball! I play Mah Jongg weekly with good friends! There’s the monthly Book Club and Bunko. I won’t mention my record…
Hanging With Wilda and Al
Can you ever have too many friends? I didn’t think so either. I have friends from all over the country and world actually. It’s remarkable, especially since I’ve lived in the same community with a little detour before and after I got married. New Hampshire, specifically the area of Newfound Lake, where my friends own…
Finishing Up Fall in New Hampshire Part 1
It’s hard for me to believe that just 6 short weeks ago, I was appreciating all of the fall colors and now that same place had more than a foot of snow yesterday; just in time for Thanksgiving. What a difference it makes when you live in a 4 season city! I can only relate…
Let My Pictures Do The Talking

New Hampshire…My Happy Place
You can’t go to the Inn on Newfound Lake, and not take the drive to Polly’s Pancake House in Sugar Hill. It’s about 45 minutes of gorgeous scenery with the prize of eating a great breakfast. Yes, they are known for their incredible pancakes, but I was feeling rebellious and had a waffle and bacon,…
New Hampshire And Maine
The journey continues as the four amigas finish up the last leg of our 10 day New England vacation in New Hampshire. We’re staying at my friends Inn on Newfound Lake. I’ve been posting pictures of the Inn for many years now, because it is so beautiful. What was once a yearly visit has morphed…
Vermont…Here We Come
We have already been Welcomed to…Massachusetts and New York now we move on through the beautiful Green Mountain State of Vermont. As the passenger (as always) I have the opportunity, through the car window, of seeing the landscape and capturing the sights along the way. Today, I was struck with the dilapidated buildings. The weather…

There is so much to see and do in Cooperstown. Everyone is familiar with the Hall of Fame, but have you heard of the Fenimore Art Museum? Located overlooking Otsego Lake, this museum is known for its American Folk Art and North American Indian Art. It also has a large collection of memorabilia from author…
