Memories at Company in Chelsea

 

 

These shots are from my grandmother's house in Jaffrey, NH and I was reminded tonight of this place while having dinner with my parents and Zachary at an excellent pizza restaurant in Chelsea called Company, http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant/co/


We talked about my family and traded gossip, and I was brought back to this place and how special it is to my family.  My grandparents bought it in the early 1960's and now finally with my grandmother at 94, she is putting it on the market.  It is an old hunting lodge that was converted to a three bedroom and has lakefront property, a boathouse and bunkhouse and lovely grounds that are filled with Queen Anne's Lace wildflowers in August.   I visited there this summer and was astounded with how quiet and green it is.  They have a view of Mount Mondadnock from the front lawn and really for me, it was a place for visiting and enjoying the peaceful relationship of my grandparents.  Otherwise tonight, we talked about my friend from Bedford, Liz Welch and her new book and the local news from Averill, VT, where we have a summer cabin.  AND, the pizza is excellent!!!!!
