i trekked down to walpole, new hampshire, for stephanie's birthday dinner. stephanie and her husband, hugh, and daughters kate and sally were there too, also sally's boyfriend (whose name is escaping me), as well as molly and beignet, two golden labs. molly enjoys woofing constantly. they live in a beautiful house overlooking the connecticut river valley. before dinner i toured the gardens with stephanie, played ping pong with hugh, hung out with kate and sally. after dinner i screened of oz the wizard. this picture of stephanie is terrible, but that's the breaks with my cell phone--it makes everyone look strange. stephanie runs a very cool memoir website for women. check it out: memoir cafe.
