Bright & Cozy

Here are some photos of my new apartment. It makes me really sad when I have to leave in the morning, just as the sun is beginning to send its beams through the kitchen window onto the bright cupboards. These photos were taken during a snowstorm, so there wasn't even much sun. Look how bright it is in here! The lights aren't even on.

The only problem with having so many windows and cupboards is that I have few places to hang my pictures.

The "living room."

The kitchen. (still some rearranging to be done.)

My writing desk in the bedroom.

Ida crawls (caught on video)

Ida started crawling this week... Very exciting. Ez

Anniversary in Barkhamsted, CT

Riverton is a village in the town of Barkhamsted, in northern CT.

Damage from last weekend's storm to two large oaks in front of the Riverton glassworks (formerly the Hitchcock Chair Museum).

Breakfast in the bay window of The Old Riverton Inn. Building visible across the Farmington River is the former Hitchcock Chair/Furniture Factory.

Hiking in People's State Forest.

October 29 snowfall...with 12 hours to go

Finished deck

We were able to finish on Tuesday night before the rain (Wed afternoon). It looks more chocolatey when wet (above) than when dry (previous post).

Deck painting

Painting the lamp and mailbox posts turned into painting the deck, as inspiration hit Jason. Didn't have time to do the floor. Hopefully we'll get to that next weekend.
