Is it Spring Yet?Originally uploaded by darbyfieldinn.

Here is an example of Spring in New Hampshire. We received several inches of snow, pushing us ever nearer to breaking our 100 year record. While it has been a GREAT winter, we are all ready to run barefoot through green grass! Maybe in a couple of months…in the meantime sleigh rides are still going strong and the snowshoeing and x-country skiing conditions are fantastic!
The inn will be closed for mud season from April 6 through 17. Hopefully when we return there will be a little less of the white stuff. We are running some Super Spring Specials during April and May, so don’t forget to check out our website from time to time…

All You Need is Dove…Originally uploaded by darbyfieldinn.One of the highlights of breakfast here at the Darby Field Inn, besides the fantastic food, is watching the antics of the birds and squirrels at the feeder. It is interesting to watch the different groups and the way they all interact with each other. I consider doves to be the gentle cows of the population; they always congregate in large, cooing groups and eat enormous amounts of sunflower seeds. They will readily give up their feeder position to any other birds, even the little Chickadees! Doves are also here year round, providing great photo opportunities for our guests, no matter what the season. It is easy to see why these gentle birds became associated with the symbol for peace!

Our View, Plus Icicles!Originally uploaded by darbyfieldinn.Unlike last year, we have tons of snow AND icicles. Sleigh rides have been keeping us busy so far; everyone wants to treat themselves to our romantic, private rides! No need to plan ahead…we offer a last minute special every week to help motivate you to come play with us. Bring your cross country skis or snowshoes and set a day aside to enjoy our groomed trails. If you forget, you can use ours for a small rental fee. Oh, and if you call and no one answers, leave a message…we’re out skiing!

Fall Foliage #6Originally uploaded by darbyfieldinn.

Fall foliage was absolutely beautiful this year! For those of you who weren’t here to see it, here’s a taste of what you missed. We were quite busy for a few weeks, and luckily everyone got to see some color, as the event was nicely spread over 4 or 5 weeks. Folks had such a great time in 2006 we are already getting reservations for next year!

This is Our Garden Growing!Originally uploaded by darbyfieldinn.For those of you who reminded me to put current photos of the garden on the website, thank you! I was falling behind in my duties…we’ve been staying pretty busy during the swing of summer! This seems to be a well chosen favorite spot for elopements and full weddings alike! We still offer some great last minute specials during this busy time…so make no excuses, give us call and come share in our beautiful property and the White Mountains!
