We did venture off the porch and take a drive Saturday up north through Franconia Notch State Park. There was still snow on a lot of the mountains and some people were even still skiing at the slopes!!! It was at least 80 degrees at the base of the mountains! 
How fitting ... the oldest people with the oldest mountain in NH in the background. And here's my mom & I at The Basin. 
We also spent approximately $400 eating out at different restaurants—Fratello’s in Manchester, The Granite Restaurant in Concord, some really cool sandwich shop in Franconia and The Common Man in Concord—this weekend. Let me rephrase that. “We” didn’t spend that. My parents treated us. My dad says to us, “You two don’t spend a lot of money yourselves, but you sure know how to spend other people’s money.”
When it comes to food, we all have our favorites. Big on Lotto loves his shrimp (that was his second plate).
Short on Coffee loves her coffee. 
And I love my desserts. 
Now that they are gone, we can turn our TV volume back down from 59 to 12 (no joke there), switch the radio station from Soul Train and stop answering the endless questions, like “so what time are leaving to go eat?” (Big on Lotto) and “can I help you with something?” (Short on Coffee). Also, they did survive without cable, but still don’t understand why we are resistant to getting it.
