It comes around every Spring... that long, seemingly interminable wait between the first warm days of the season and a sustained burst of warm weather.
This year it probably seems longer than usual because of the cruel March "joke" we endured - a full week of clear blue skies and temperatures in the eighties. Then in April, another stretch of great warmth - not quite as drastic but still unseasonably pure.
Now: it's rain, rain every day - not cold but no end to grey skies in sight. ("They" say it will end Sunday but "they" said last week that this whole week would be sunny and warm, so we're somewhat skeptical.)
We are forced to take drastic measures and go back to our archives to find two wonderful Spring shots from our book, "The Lakes Region of New Hampshire: Four Seasons, Countless Memories." These are both by the multi-talented Bob Manley of Sanbornton. (See his work at bobdonpaul.com and hermitwoods.com.)
Bob says this shot of "Meredith Adirondack Chairs" is one of his most popular.
The peace and serenity of Pauli Point captured perfectly.
You can enjoy these and more great shots by numerous talented local photographers in "The Lakes Region of New Hampshire: Four Seasons, Countless Memories," available at local bookstores as well as on our website, lakesregionnhbook.com, and at Amazon.com.
