A warm Winter ...
 | ...Two new pals, "Bub" (Christopher) and Amethyst, have joined the household! |
 | ...On a particularly warm January day, Zhanna explores mines and iron furnaces in Northern New Jersey, logs a terracache, and even finds some survey marks along the way. |
 | ..."OK, into the cart you go!!!"With little fear of being arrested, Zhanna plays in an ore cart at Long Pond Ironworks. |
These wild woods of mine(s) ...
...Zhanna, Rich and Aaron discover a mine opening near Archbald. The mine openings are being numbered in preparation for an industrialization endeavor in this area. This one might be filled in soon. |
 |
Anthracite people ...
...While on a brief mission to the Anthracite Heritage Museum in Scranton, Zhanna checks out a steam locomotive dating back to the time when Coal was King. |
 |
Every day should be like this ...
 | ...A leisurely ride on the River Trail and an even more leisurely break on these warm rocks make for a perfect Spring morning! |
Sliding & diving ...
 | ...After a few false starts, Zhanna and Rich finally find the Eddy Tunnel portal. Don't fall in! |
Birthday surprise ...
...Zhanna stands on a path overlooking Mohonk Lake and Mohonk Mountain House. The hike to Skytop was just one part of a fabulous birthday surprise trip to the 'Gunks! |
 |
Kickin' back ...
...Zhanna takes a moment to relax in the Systems office. (I'm not going to post the real "kickin' back" photo!) |
 |
No fear ...
 | ...Back in the 'Gunks for Easter weekend, Zhanna climbs again (with her new climbing gear) and loves it! |
Biting into the Big Apple ...
...On a day-trip to New York City, Zhanna finally gets to introduce Rich to the world's best (or, now that we've had Rosalie's, maybe second-best?) pizza! |
 |
Awaiting Summer ...
 | ...On a beautiful evening, Zhanna takes a welcome lunch break and wanders over to explore the tracks above the University fields. |
Summer finally arrives ...
...Caught in the headlights??? Zhanna goofs off while exploring near Indian Hill in Stering Forest State Park. |
 |
 | ..."Look, it's a barge!"Zhanna is quite excited to see some activity on the river near Bear Mountain. PTOLEMY is at her feet. |
Not a tree hugger ...
...Zhanna does some "gardening" at Dozer Junction while hiking Fishkill Ridge in the East Hudson Highlands. |
 |
Maine-ly insane ...
...Though she wasn't (and still isn't) sure whether this was really supposed to be a place to sit, Zhanna couldn't resist hopping into this wooden lobster's lap, right outside Ben & Bill's Chocolate Emporium in Bar Harbor, Maine. |
 |
...Zhanna, motorman for a day, finally gets her chance to operate a trolley at Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, Maine! |
 |
Fall fun ...
 | ...It was a bountiful squirrel season here in Northeast PA! |
Modeling ...
 | ...In yet another moment of extreme ambition, Zhanna agrees to create a gingerbread model of the Swetland Homestead for display during holiday candlelight tours. At least it turned out well! |
