What an amazing day it is today in the Mount Washington Valley....you would never know that a Hurricane/Tropical storm passed this way yesterday...until you go for a ride through the community.
This little video was taken in Jackson, NH which is a small community about 20 minutes away. I lived there a few years back with the kids and it's still our favorite place for Pizza and wine.
Thankfully here other than some drippy ceilings, this is the most damage that we sustained.
Needless to say while I spent some time out in the beautiful sunshine today, I was thinking of my friends and saying a few prayers for the communities that have been devastated around here.
I did manage to get my little Whitfield Shorty blocked today. (this color is SO hard to photograph..Anne got it much closer) It is my goal to get it finished for my grandson when he visits on Wednesday.
I also prepared the little nest of garlic for autumn storage. I had quite a bit more when I harvested the garlic, but I gave a good amount of it away to friends and family.
Such an amazingly beautiful day here after an amazing storm.
My thoughts are with those who are going through a hard time right now.
Glad you are safe, too. Cannot believe that is that little river that goes through Jackson. WOW. I XC where the water is.

Kim, I was thinking about you while watching the news. I am so glad that you and the family are all ok. Stay safe.

Kim - I'm so glad you're safe and sound! Thoughts and prayers being sent to those less fortunate in the wake of this storm.

It's so good to hear you and yours are fine. Your garlic is beautiful! We feel ours are like little jewels and were mete them out here and there.

Wow--that looks like Class 10 rapids! I was evacuated from OBX last week--a minor inconvenience in comparison to the damage inland. Glad you escaped with not much damage. Ironically, the most beautiful weather always follows a hurricane.
