WHAT IS SO RARE AS A DAY IN APRIL?

We live in New Hampshire and there's still lots of snow on the ground but the thermometer reads 95 degrees outside our kitchen window!! Around here we've learned to take the weather one day at a time - it's sort of "if you don't like it, wait a minute".

This morning Kay and I drove to Wolfeboro, New Hampshire (the oldest summer resort in the U.S.) where Lake Winnipesaukee wraps itself up one entire side of the town. We love to poke in the shops in Wolfeboro but we mainly go there because of the consignment shop - Re-Threads - where we take things that either no longer fit or we haven't worn them in over a year. We had a check for $26 waiting for us which we quickly spent on new/old duds off the racks in the shop. It's like renting our clothes!!

We're so fortunate that we enjoy the same things. That's what being in a same-sex partnership is all about for us. When we were younger, doing separate things was O.K. but now that we're older the time spent together becomes more precious. The activities we've been involved in which keep us close are all in our book, "Sisters by Heart".
