Between the Woods and Frozen Lake..... (Robert Frost, 1922)

After several days of below zero and single digit temperatures, we enjoyed the much welcomed double digit temperatures today. We had such a fun time pulling Grace on her sled on the lake across from our house. Grace enjoyed greeting the many ice fishermen, snowmobilers, and fellow sledders that were also enjoying the beautiful day on the lake. Grace dragged her right mitten in the snow the entire time ~ we think she wanted to leave her little mark in the snow amongst all of the other large snowmobile tracks.

Hi Grace:

Isn't it great living in New England?

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Ah, Grace, you have so many wonderful things to experience.

This summer, Maddy, Daddy, Mommy, Uncle Adam, you, and I will have to go up to the Robert Frost trail in Ripton. It's a great trail with Frost's poems displayed along the way. Then we'll walk up to Robert Frost's summer cabin.

Also, when you're older, I'll tell you the true story of Caesar Rodney. Even though it didn't happen in New England, it's a stirring story. Your Mama and Uncle Adam know the story.

Love you, my little Mainer.

Got Gracie, Jack & Eve?
