We spent the last 10 days visiting New Hampshire and some of Jeremiah's family. We started at Stout Oak Farm in Epping with cousin Kate and her husband Jeff and then went to Uncle Ron and Aunt Barbara's summer house at Emerald Island on Lake Sunapee.
We helped Kate where we could on her farm - weeding, harvesting, washing and taking the organic vegetables to farmer's markets. We caught up over crops of onions and snap peas. It was a great learning experience for us to see all that goes into growing and preparing organic foods and having fresh vegetables for meals everyday was amazing.

At Lake Sunapee we took relaxation to whole new level. We chatted, read, kayaked, swam, and ate ice cream. The weather was perfect, the house amazing and the company wonderful.
We are now back in Oregon now and have been greeted by rain. This weekend we head to Central Oregon and at the end of the month we head back to Taiwan.
Looks like NH was so fun and relaxing!
ReplyDeleteYou captured New England very well with your pictures. =o) I grew up in New England so it's an odd feeling when people come and visit. I've always thought, "Why? Why here?"
ReplyDeleteI enjoy reading your blog.
awesome pics- I love Jeremiah's beard! He should be the scruffy guy for next year, in honor of me :) Hope you guys have a good time in Taiwan, and I can't wait to meet the little one :)
