tripnotes: Manchester, Vermont

We stayed at the Palmer House, which had a lovely stocked trout pond. The water was so cam it looked like glass!

The lilacs were in full bloom and the air smelled amazing. Here they are covered in mornin' dew.

It was so great to get out of the city and spend a little time in the country. Loved this weathervane.

The weather was warm during the day and chilly in the evening. The Palmer House has a 9 hole golf course, and we spent a bit of time on the links.

Turns out I'm pretty good. This photo was taken after a hole-in-one. Yay me! YAY MANCHESTER!!

the early show is so early



Last weekend I was on The Early Show and let me tell you, it's on EARRRRLY. I'm not totally awake here, but it was still a blast! And check out Amy Goodman's book "Wear This, Toss That" - it's a great read.

Missing Paris



I went to see "Midnight in Paris" last night and it had me remember my own trip to Paris a few years ago. So I thought I'd repost some of my own photos so we can stroll down memory lane together.

I really miss Pushing Daisies - old Netflix episdoes just ain't cutting it. Bring it back! (I know that won't happen, but I'm getting tired of reality TV.)
