Good morning! I hope you're happy that it's Friday. Fall continues to arrive in New Hampshire - the apple orchards opened for picking last weekend, school has started, and the nights are delightfully cool. And we have more sunflowers blooming! I hope you're also seeing signs of the changing season wherever you are because we... Continue Reading →
