Last week cold snow wind and rain this week 80 degrees sunshine and the daffodils are in bloom on the lawn. In fact for the last few days we have had flood warnings and high fire danger. The floods a result of the rapidly melting snow pack to the north and the fire danger due to the drying breezes and warm temperatures. You have to love New England weather.
The storm of the last few days is finally loosening its grip on us. We have over 5 inches of rain and some incredible wind. We were without power like many in the area for a day and a half. We are truly fortunate because we heat with a woodstove and it still works even without electricity. The new Jotul 118 definitely proved that it is worth having around as we were warm throughout.
Yes it's true that was me. I appeared in the Parade Magazine What people earn piece last weekend on page 4. Don Kleiner, 51 Lobbyist Union, Maine Because I have clients all over the country who saw the piece I received many great e-mails and phone calls. My favorite comment was “Underpaid, but famous.” I plan to use that one for quite some time!
