    60 degrees in New Hampshire today

    So I took my blackbird out for a stroll in the woods and set it up for the first time this year. Nice sunny spot between a couple of trees, and man I could've stayed there all day.

    60F in NH in March, sheesh!

    It was in the 50s up here in the Bangor, ME area today. Gorgeous. I have to go back down to El Paso, TX for work for six months so I will miss the New England spring & summer. Oh well. At least I should be back by early fall.

    Glad you got to get out on such a fine day.

    60's in NH? That sounds like the highs when I was up there last summer. Enjoy it while you can!

    I worked there last summer as well. I'm not thrilled about it, but at least it's a job...

    Believe me, I'm diligently looking for work in the New England area, since I want to settle here permanently. It will come, just takes time (more so, given the economy)
