A Family Tradition, Vermont style

Every Veteran's Day I go on a day trip to Vermont w/ my parents and sister. We have done this since we moved to N.Y. 16 years ago (wow, I can't believe it's been 16 years??!!). Some things have changed since then, like spouses and children, but we still keep this tradition. There have been a few years when the caravan to the North Country has been, well, kind of large. This year, there were 7 of us that went.
Here are some pics.

Northern Exposure

Last weekend we went to Northern N.H. to have some R&R w/ Brad, Shelley, Ellie and Ava Chappell. It was gorgeous !!! It had been a while since I had the opportunity to see the Milky Way and I was glad to get reacquainted. Mostly we ate, chatted and then ate some more. And I wonder why my clothes are getting tight ??!!??
Oh, and did I mention that the temperature was a balmy 20 degrees?
*p.s. I finally saw a moose (or two)*

Here are some pics from the weekend.

Family Ties

On Sunday, the Howe family met at Gordon and Sue's for a lunch reminiscent of Thanksgiving. Later there was a friendly game of football. Here are some photos from the day.
Amy, Rob, Rebecca & John; Jen, Matt, Thomas & Nathan; Tim & Kelly ... we miss you already!



The big game ... Watch out NE Patriots !!

Gordon's birthday lunch

On Saturday, the Howe family got together to celebrate Gordon's 65th birthday. We had a nice lunch at Delmonico's. Here are some of the pictures. I somehow managed to NOT get a picture of Tim and Jen, but they were there too. Sorry guys.
