After Black Friday and Cyber Monday - it's "Mid-Week Madness"!

What's left after Black Friday and Cyber Monday are but a distant memory??? MID-WEEK MADNESS, of course! That's where you reflect on the wild weather we're having and then decide to buy a few Head in the Clouds Amherst wall calendars to round out your holiday shopping. Best of all, for the next two days, right through Thursday (that's the mid-week madness part), we've dropped our price by 25% to $10/calendar. All purchases through Thursday will be mailed off (priority mail) by Friday - and you'll have them in hand early next week, well ahead of Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, and, yes, even Emily Dickinson's birthday. And once you have our calendar, you'll be on top of all those dates, as well as the anniversaries of more than 50 notable New England weather events from 1660 to 2014. I mean can you really go on not knowing when a thunderstorm passed through North Amherst and destroyed "Factory Hollow?" It's all just a click away.

After such an enthusiastic reception last year, we are delighted to release our new Head in the Clouds Amherst 2015 Wall Calendar. Once again, the calendar features 12 of your favorite nature photos from our blog, all taken in Amherst and the surrounding area. And new this year, we've added photo titles and location captions so you can easily identify where each photo was taken. Printed on high quality, glossy paper, this calendar notes major holidays, as well as astronomical events visible from Amherst with the naked eye (full moon, new moon, meteor showers, and more). Our calendar also documents nearly 50 major weather events that occurred in Amherst and New England between 1660 and 2014. A perfect gift for friends and family, this calendar will delight and surprise month after month. Full size when open is 17" high and 11" wide. 

Price is $13.50 $10.00 per calendar until midnight on Thursday, December 4 through this website. After December 4th, the price will go back to $13.50/calendar. (Sale is not available at local retail stores.)
