Saturday Sparks Link Party 116

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 116!

Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial start of the summer season here in New Hampshire and the tourists come in droves to visit our beautiful state. We are well versed in the beauty that surrounds us, but witnessing the deluge of so many converging upon us serves as a reminder as to how truly blessed we are.    "Keep your eyes open to your mercies. The man who forgets to be thankful has fallen asleep in life." ~ Robert Louis Stevenson    

 Now, lets get this weeks party started.
