We've spent the past week in the US, on the east coast, visiting our family in NJ. It's a different lifestyle compared with Kaslo - we basically drive everywhere and almost every drive is 20 minutes. Watching basketball games - which I prefer to soccer games - has taken us to a few new spots. The skies are bright and with all the leaves off the hardwood trees it's easy to spot things in the distance. The bird watching has actually been quite good. There's been several very scenic walks. And as we take that 20 minute drive, nearly all of the time we are driving amongst homes that belong to the 1 per cent. This is one of my favourites, located on the outskirts of Bernardsville. From the McCormick home, we get a 8.5 km walk partly through town and next to many homes that are similar to the one below.
