“Moore Farm”, on New Durham Road, in Alton (N.H.) is one of our favorite local farms. It is also probably one of the closest working farms to us and, furthermore, we have a friend who lives there. So we are no strangers to this delightful, ever friendly farm.
Deanna always makes a point to note when they are having their “Open Houses”. Yesterday was one of them. We went. It was, as always, fun. Nice people. Beautiful day. Friendly lambs. We had fun. We bought some stuff. Met a few people we knew. Saw some very clever and creative works of art — banjos made from cigar boxes were a treat.
The music was good too — though I have no idea who she was. She needs to publicize herself a bit more. Maybe everybody, but us, knew who she was and how good she is.
Here are some pictures. Enjoy.

TDS, Upfront For ONCE, Holds Alton, NH, ‘TDS TV’ Open House On April Fool’s Day.
As some of us are PAINFULLY aware Internet service by TDS in the Alton, New Hampshire area has been a JOKE for the last year or more.
Yes, they have been promising 1 Gigabit Internet for over a year but I have yet to see it.
As far as I am concerned TDS is but a poor and very bad JOKE. I am staying with MetroCast 105 Mbps Broadband Internet service. It might be 10x times slower than 1 Gigabit BUT it is stable, up 98% of the time and the bandwidth rarely if ever fluctuates. I think we all know that that will not be the case with TDS. I would hate to rely on Internet, TV and voice on TDS.

It, for a nice change, was ‘warm‘, maybe around 40°F. Wow. It was barmy. You didn’t need gloves and you didn’t have to stamp your feet. No snow. We have yet to have any snow this winter. I think that that is atypical. Deanna wanted to go on the (truck-pulled) hay ride. So we got there early, before 6pm. We were surprised. There was hardly anybody there. We thought that it was because it was a tad early. We were wrong.
Less than 100 people at the Christmas tree lighting at 6:30! Maybe around 60. That is crazy. We have seen more people when it was cold. I actually think that that was the reason. It wasn’t cold enough. Trust me. After 30 years in New Hampshire I know how they think. They are going to say that it wasn’t cold enough to feel like Christmas.
The caroling, as ever, was enthusiastic with well chosen pieces. I always enjoyed that.
The ‘Alton Historical Society‘, as is their wont, had an ‘open house’ at their ‘J. Jones & Son’ freight building behind the Town Hall. We checked that out. We always tour it if it is open. It is always rewarding. I will do a separate post on that. That was good. As was the huge cookies and very hot chocolate at the Town Hall. We went to Chinese afterwards.
Merry Christmas.
