About Me
I'm married to Christopher Hallett, 15th and 30th Corps, for 22 years and we have 2 girls, Becca 20 and Lily 17. We went through the Corps training with #30 together as a family at Gunnison, 1999-2001 and our assignment was state coordinators for NH/VT/ME. We left that position and the ministry in 2005, but have stayed in Bow, New Hampshire--that makes eight years. We do not participate in any other church, ministry or group
We have two daughters and three cats. My younger daughter, Lily, is an avid rock climber and talented writer and artist. My elder daughter, Becca, is self-starting her modeling career in Boston and enjoying success. We're often in Boston ourselves and think it's a fantastic city.
For myself, I write poetry, fiction and creative nonfiction, as I have time and discipline, and participate in two writers' groups to stay active and connected.
My Interests
Writing and Reading
Gardening
Outdoor activites: walking, skiing, etc.
history, politics and animals
Employment or Career
I am self-employed as a freelance writer and insurance agent. Since coming to New Hampshire, I've also worked fulltime as a non-profit administrator for NH Public Radio and NH Writers' Project.
Music I Like
I like lots of music but could not name any of it -- mostly it's what my daughters put on. I just follow along.
Books I Like
I am a big reader. I love novels and creative nonfiction. I don't do so well with nonfiction that doesn't tell a story. Along those lines I really enjoyed Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, The Soloist by Steve Lopez, and The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner. Too many more favorites to list.
Television I like
The Office is my favorite right now-- I recently watched every show in order through the first 5 seasons so I got the complete stroy line and sequence of events. Not in one day of course. Now I'm waiting for HULU to post all of season 6.
Movies I like
Too many. I was surprised to really like The Hangover. I also like Into the Wild, Little Miss Sunshine, I Robot, 16 Blocks, Lords of Dogtown.....Pulp Fiction is my all time favorite. I can watch comedies like 13 Going on 30, The Devil Wears Prada, Freaky Friday, or My Big Fat Greek Wedding over and over again, especially after a hard day.
Sports Teams I like
The Red Sox and The Patriots of course, though only because I live in New England not because I watch any games.

It is so great to hear from you all again. We are doing very well and so blessed to hear you are as well. I was excited to sign up on this site, but have not had alot of time to add stuff but pictures are coming. Life is amazing as we almost bought a house in Bow, NH about 6 years ago. I was hired by the parent company of White Mountain Cable (Epping I believe) and chose Bow because of its schools. I did not want to leave Florida but it was an offer I had to take and I grew up in the Lawrence, MA area. My family now lives in Methuen, MA, Kingston, NH and Derry NH. Quite a small world. We visit usually every other year. I wiil be flying into Manchester sometime this spring for business and we plan on visiting the area in early December. We would love to see your family if at all possible. Please give Christopher a big hug from the "Hickeyman".
Take Care,
Bill
I'll drop Nancy a line. They made a good impression on Diane and I. Diane watched their little boy then Skiler or Skyler (I think that was his name) anyway...If you ever in the neighborhood, west coast Florida, let us know. We'll give you guys the grand tour with well advanced notice. Howdy do to Chris.
Luv u,
Roberto
I am a Field Rep. for P&G, so I am all over the retail sector of Alpha.,......I do plan on visiting Boston in the fall, my good friend Connie lives there now and she is asking for us to visit soon....my son attends Savannah College of Art and Design , as you know that's nex door to the High so it's like a pit stop for us when we go to mid-town..we will be checking out the Georgia O'Keefe collection tomorrow, I am so excited. So far, my favorite exhibit has been the "Impressionism"..just last month and the Quilts by the Women of Gee's Bend, this was so full of heart and history ...an art past on from black slaves to the next generation, these women were strong and "believed." My most favorite thing about Atlanta....We have visited New Hampshire a couple of times, we had some great believer friends in Jamaica, Vermont now they live near Vince Finnegan's fellowship.
I saw your garden ..loved it! We are gardners too... can't help myself! As spring arrives, I'll have to post some photos.
Take Care-
Betsy
Bless you guys! Say Hello to my "homie" Christopher...WOW
I am thrilled that we are able to connect...I work in Alpharetta. love that area, it's grown so much and is continuing to. Is'nt Duluth just "awesome." It has become multi-cultural...we have a huge asian population and restaurants ...we go out for pho (noodle soup) just about every other friday. We live in Old Towne Duluth and it's really a tight knit community...just don't speed thru here because they will catch you....I don't think our police dept. has anything better going on.
Well, let us know when your in the neighborhood....God's abundant blessings on you all. You have a beautiful family!
Betsy
Love you
