2009 started in a quiet, cold house on a frozen lake in Maine. From there, I took my carry-on…

to a colorful and unpredictable Philadelphia...

on a wintertime visit to Canada’s incredible Niagara Falls (the mist froze everything in sight!)...

on a springtime stroll through Central Park in New York City...

to see the Falls again in the summer and from a different perspective (the American side)...

on Amtrak's Downeaster to visit friends in Maine...

through a storm on a surprise getaway to Cape Cod...

and many, many trips around Boston, Rochester & upstate New York. It's the collection of these moments that made last year so great. I think the best resolution I could make for this year is to explore just as much or more. What are your resolutions for 2010?
