Summer Dayz

This weekend we made our way to Concord, MA for the Verrill Farm Corn and Tomato Festival. I had been looking forward to this for a couple of weeks, as I heart everything CORN. I was going to the festival ready to eat Corn, Cornbread, Corn chowder and whatever else corn they could throw my way. Imagine my disappointment when we get there and there is a sign that reads: Festival Closed due to Wet Fields! Yes, the 10 billion gallons of rain we have been receiving would do that I suppose. It was a major bummer, however, the Verrill Farm store was still open so I did by some ears of corn for our enjoyment at home. We cooked some of them up, and there is really NOTHING better in the summer that a buttery cob of corn!


We have been hit hard the last three weeks with record amounts of rain here in Boston. This summer has been much more bearable as far as heat and humidity is concerned, however has been spent with much less walks around the neighborhood. After church, it was sunny and clear so we decided to take a family stroll around Somerville. I just love the houses and the feeling this area has. Here are some of the things we enjoyed seeing, hope you enjoy them as well.

Above is a typical Somerville house.

McDuff is always happy to get out of the house and take a walk.
