FROM THE BOSTON GLOBE

Expats find provisions plum-pudding perfect

NASHUA - When Denise and Gerry Pressinger launched The British Aisles 20 years ago, their dining room table was the warehouse and their living room was filled with fellow British expatriates every Saturday afternoon. “They’d come over to stock up on things they missed from home,’’ Denise recalls. “Silly things, really, like HP Sauce and Heinz beans, all the biscuits, ...

To our left, a gangly heron took flight and crossed a small cove where autumn’s fruity colors reflected on the water. I felt like an explorer, drifting through a seemingly ...

Set up camp at Lake Umbagog, a naturally diverse, watery world

ERROL, N.H. - Ian Drew, deputy manager of the Lake Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge, delivered the somber news: “They either took down the nest or it blew down in a storm, or the tree may simply be too weak now.’’
