Dawn's Thursday Thirteen, Edition Twenty-Four:



Thirteen Silly Things I Miss About New England



1) peaceful, winding roads...

2) ...lined with great big shady trees...

3) ...and enormous full evergreen trees, with boughs that come all the way down to the ground.

4) Stop & Shop...

5) ...a Dunkin Donuts on every other street corner...

6) ...and banks with Saturday morning hours.

7) houses with cellars...

8) ...and big front porches...

9) ...lining the streets in residential areas that are not all pre-planned housing communities.

10) guaranteed coverage of *every* Red Sox game...

11) ...and *every* Patriots game.

12) churches that are actually beautiful buildings with some history, not built ten minutes ago in a cold, stark, completely contemporary style or permanently run out of hotel conference rooms or in vacant storefronts in strip malls.

13) rolling hills with mountains in the distance.

If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

A dunkin donuts at every corner and an ice storm blocking the entrance. LOL

Enormous trees that come all the way down to the ground when loaded with ice.

Just kidding. couldn't resist after yesterdays storm here in NE.
