[NHLakesChapter] Let's share with three new additions to our list serve!

Thu May 15 01:46:03 UTC 2025

Hello Lisa, John, and Josh!

My name is Andrew Harmon, and I am a proud gamer of mostly table-top role-playing games though I still occasionally play some video games with a sighted friend over a chat program called Discord. I also enjoy the occasional fantasy or science fiction story online or via the BARD app on my I-Phone SE 2020 (or as I like to call it an I-Phone 11.75)

Welcome to the group and hope to talk soon!

Sincerely

Andrew Harmon

Greetings and Salutations to the new people.

I'm Michelle residing in Woodsville NH. 

Interesting fact about me: I used to do dog sitting and worked with my grandmothers large and small dogs for obedience training. My favorite was her dog that was a mix of Mastif, Great Dane and Newfoundland (she was a gentle giant) and My Golden Retriever who my Mom trained for my guide dog who walked with me from 1995 till 2006 or 2009. Currently I'm a shared owner of a DDR German Shepared and Belguim Malanmua Mix. (we werent' told it was part belgium Mal till we had it for three weeks and the breeder wouldn't take it back. This is the first time I had to have someone come in and help train. Still he's a beautiful Dog.

Still going to go for a guide dog, just think it would be nice to have one trained by one of the schools instead of a home trained dog. This dog we have now isn't right for guide work And he's shared with others in the house. My eldest brother named him Bear. And since Etienne died Bear has still been looking for Etienne.

Good morning all,

  Welcome to the group Lisa, John and Josh! My name is Fred and I live in Exeter with my 6.5 year old black lab, Clancy (boyfriend to Dharma!). 

  A fun fact about me is that I was fortunate to have worked a full career before coming legally blind at the age of 60. I have two wonderful daughters and their husbands. Each has two wonderful children of their own! But, maybe i am biased! 

Welcome,

Fred

Good morning and welcome to all newcomers! 

I was born in Boston, raised in a small city called Woburn, MA after living in Brooklyn,  NY and Jacksonville, FL in my formative years.   

For the past 35 years, I've called small town Brentwood, NH home.

I have a black lab guide dog named Dharma. She's a sweetheart.  Her favorite hobby is lying on the patio love seat in the sun trying to become a baked potato. 🦮

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

Let’s all share a warm welcome to Lisa, John and Josh!

Three have joined us, and I’d like everyone to continue our tradition and share their first name and a fun fact about themselves. It could be where we were born and raised, the city or town where we live now, a hobby, a favorite movie, or just about anything! If we share a different fun fact about ourselves each time we welcome someone, we’ll learn more about each other at the same time. Let’s have fun with it!

Welcome Lisa, John and Josh! My name is Dana and I have a 25 year old son and 21 year old daughter.

All the best,

Dana Trahan
