New Hampshire received a lot of rain in May, particularly the weekend of the 13th and the 14th. I was up in Maine with my Parents enoying some beautiful sunny spring weather, but when I returned home on Sunday night, our street was flooded just beyond our house. Southern NH had severe flooding causing many schools to close for the majority of the week. The town of Hooksett was closed on Monday. They weren't letting traffic in our out of town due to the flooding.
For the last month or two, Jodie and I have enjoyed the company of a pair of barn swallows. The pair has been sleeping in the overhang just outside out front door. They didn't seem to mind us going in and out of the house as long as we were relatively quiet. Each night around 7:00pm they would fly in, spend the night and fly out around 6:00am. They are no longer staying with us - they seemed to stop coming about the same time we got the dog.
Yes, we have a dog. We are taking care of Sampson, an eleven year old yellow lab. He is owned by one of Jodie's friend's parents. They moved to California for about six months and were looking for someone to take care of Sampson while they were gone. It's been pretty fun watching Sampson. For the most part he's a really good dog, but we have had some trouble with him going to the bathroom in the house while we're at work.
I've only had the chance to go up to the lake in Maine a couple times so far. We've had nice weather both times - I even caught a bunch of fish over Memorial Day Weekend. We won't be able to go up all that much this summer because of the wedding and honeymoon.
It's hard to believe the wedding is only a couple weeks away.
