Suddenly Sunday: Happy Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mother’s out in my audience.  I hope you all had/are having a wonderful day.  It has been a beautiful day here in the northeast and we spent it picnicking, hiking, and eating ice cream at the roadside stand.  Just a wonderful day all around.

We went for a hike at Quabbin Reservoir – which you might remember from discussions about it surrounding the novel, Cascade by Maryanne O’Hara.  You can read my earlier post about the 4 towns that were drowned to create the reservoir.  I was hoping to hike to the old Common of the former town of Dana (the only part of any of the towns you can actually visit) but we didn’t make it that far on this trip.  Instead we took the scenic route and hit up the Enfield Over Look.  It is an interesting area as you can get a view of what the town used to look like from this area with the help of the historical marker and also the current view of the reservoir.  Here are some of the photos I took today:

Also, I selected the winner of the giveaway of To Live Forever by Andra Watkins. For once, the reveal is actually timely! And the winner is Gina D!  Congrats!  The email has been sent out and if no response is received within 5 days I will select a new winner. 

Suddenly Sunday is hosted by Muse in the Fog.
