Bald Eagles & Osprey

Bald Eagles & Osprey

One of my favorite things to do on Saturday morning is to go to the dump. It sounds silly but there is a lot going on at our local landfill. This week it was Bald Eagles and Osprey. I kid you not. When we pulled in to get our ticket

My First Holz Hausen

My First Holz Hausen

It's the first autumn since moving back to New Hampshire that I actually have a yard. I love it. I loved it in the spring. I loved it all summer long. And now I am loving it to the fullest degree this autumn. Over the long Columbus Day

More Than Conquerors

It's an absolutely gorgeous Sunday morning in August. I am waiting for Orange Muffins [http://www.pinterest.com/pin/64528207135207732/] to get out of the oven. They smell good. We are out of all the quick and easy items at home so I am trying to do some

A Life for an Eye

Did you read the 1/22/14 Valley News headline? * Woman Sentenced for Theft [http://www.vnews.com/news/police/fire/courts/10301707-95/woman-sentenced-for-theft] It riled my nerves. I understand the necessity for laws. It's not as if I think Bonnie Johnson should escape punishment for embezzling $600K.

Justice and Mercy

Justice and Mercy

Of Judges, Beggars, and the Law [http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rloygPlstBE/UW7_9ZTx7GI/AAAAAAAAMoQ/EDBmEH7ucRM/s1600/Justice_and_Mercy.JPG]> We demand Justice until Justice demands us, then sue we for Mercy’s saving grace. We are creatures of justice. Simply defined, justice is an enforced standard of
