I have been at this job hunting activity for several months. What am I ? Chopped Liver ? Maybe I will stop being depressed and go do something else. I came to New Hampshire for Thanksgiving week, and things began to happen. Today it is official, I will spend the winter working at Northstar ski resort near Truckee, California. Hurray !! In a few days I will be driving across the country again.
My Dad and I have done some excellent coastal birding in Maine, NH, and Massachusetts. Red-breasted Mergansers, Harlequin Ducks, all 3 Scoters (Black, White-winged, Surf), Common Eiders, Buffleheads, Long-tailed Ducks, Red-throated and Common Loons, Western and Horned Grebes (!!!), Snow Buntings. Special Mention: a Razorbill (Karen's Life bird), and Snowy Owls.

Karen!! Nice to see what you're up to. Your photos looks great. Please give me your new address in Truckee. I think of you all of the time. you are an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteKaren, were the falls used to generate electricity or drive machinery at the textile factories? have the factories been converted to another use or for another tenant?
