The Day After - Day 284


The lawn at the birthplace of John Adams was covered in snow this afternoon. The snow makes you think of how his house would have looked during the 17 hundreds.

It's Finally Over - Day 283


I don't like days without electricity. But thank goodness for the gas fireplace to keep us warm and a gas stove for cooking. The house was so quiet. We did get it back after 13 hours.

Snowing in Quincy - Day 282


It looks like the weathermen were right about our snow storm today. It isn't going to stop snowing until tomorrow night unless it turns to rain on the South Shore. If it stays as snow we could get 8-12 inches. I am so glad to be watching it from a warm home with plenty of wine and food.

Wooden Bench- Day 278

Christmas Parade - Day 260
















Saturday was the day for their Christmas parade. I finally got my New Orleans beads. I got so many beads I had to take some of them off they got to heavy. Everyone enjoyed the parade.

Harrah's Casino - Day 259


Make sure you get a Total Reward's card when you go to Vegas. We called Harrah's New Orleans about a room rate and they comped us 3 nights at the W and we could use our Vegas points for two steak house dinners for George and I at two great restaurants and the breakfast buffet for all five of us.

New Orleans - Day 258




We just got home from a wonderful trip to New Orleans with the kids. The weather was perfect 78 yesterday. Arriving to Boston's 32 was a killer. We stayed at the W hotel right next door to Harrah's Casino and across the street from Fulton Street that is decorated for Christmas. They even shoot snow flakes in the air to give the feeling of Christmas.
