No Internet

It's been a long time since we've had internet and will even be a bit longer. We can't seem to find a plan that is feasible so we're going to keep looking.

Right now I'm blogging it up a notch in a local coffee shop. Dave and I did a short hike to a supposed lookout but ended up bushwacking through the Vermont woods. We had a good time even though we were lost. Today's temps are nice and cool after a calm morning of misty rain. I love it in Vermont!

My new job is super fun but takes up a lot of free time--I have to drive 45 mins one-way just to get there! Since I drive so far, my morning runs are scheduled for 6:20 a.m. rather than 7 a.m. and I leave for work at 7:15 rather than 8:00 a.m. like I did in Missouri. But it's worth it. Plus, the drive is so pretty.

I'm so happy to live in the country again. The previous owner of our house (we rent it from the new owner) was a carpenter and built a kick ass wood shop. This weekend, Dave and I set up and sanded and stained a bookshelf that Dave made for me in Missouri. Next weekend, I hope to get in the garden and weed a bit; save the blueberry bushes from the creeping vines.

Well, off we go to spend some time at home. I'm not sure when I'll post again but once we have internet it will be more regular like before.

Hope you are all well and are spending plenty of time out of doors!
