Early in April I was interviewed by WMUR TV of Manchester, New Hampshire for a story about weathervanes in New Hampshire. They asked about the centaur weathervane in Londonderry located at Mack's Apples, my "Weathervane Wednesday" blog posts, my favorite weathervanes, and also about my genealogy connection to Shem Drowne, the famous weathervane maker of the 1700s. I also gave them dozens of photos of weathervanes from my blog posts to use on air.
Last Wednesday, while we in Spain visiting family members, WMUR aired their story on NH Chronicle "A World of Weathervanes". Due to European Union rules, I was blocked from viewing this program and blocked from clicking the WMUR webpage while I was in Spain. I received several emails and comments about the episode from friends and family, but still couldn't figure out how to view the story from Europe. However, soon after landing at Logan Airport in Boston, and while we were still driving home to New Hampshire, I watched this episode on my phone!
Thank you to WMUR for including me in the story! And thanks for placing a link to the Nutfield Genealogy blog and the Weathervane Wednesday posts on your webpage!
