Hudson

15 years ago, my husband and I lived in Hudson. I drove the streets daily and would often pass the land formerly known as Benson’s Wild Animal Park. The park opened to the public in 1926 and closed in 1987. When I was a kid, I went there with my family. It was sad to […]

Hebron

Hebron is a small town with a lot of character and beauty. There is a lovely park in the center of town. It is ringed by the town offices, churches, the post office and the village store…   There are a lot of fancy houses along the shores of Newfound Lake, but, if I had […]

Bridgewater

I made an unplanned stop while I was touring Bridgewater. I saw a sign for Sawhegenet Falls Park. I was hoping to get lucky again and find another waterfall! The Pemigewasset River flows slowly here, so, no waterfall, but my stop wasn’t wasted. As I was walking down the hill to the river, I heard […]

Bristol

My search for fall colors took me to Bristol this week. It isn’t peak yet but it was pretty anyhow. The combination of the mountains and Newfound Lake make for some lovely landscapes…     Before the kayakers took to the water, they left their kayaks on the beach while they unloaded the rest of […]

When my camp neighbor told me about his brother’s business of creating children’s rides and trains. I knew I had to […]

Clough State Park

When Steve and I headed out to tour Weare, I knew one of the first places I wanted to go was Clough State Park. I have wonderful memories of going there with my parents and sisters and later, bringing my own children there. I hadn’t been to the park in quite a few years, 15 […]

Charlestown

Whether you are looking for beautiful mountain views, history or adventure you can find it in Charlestown! I was amazed by all there was to see and do there. I started at The Fort at No. 4. It is hard for me to imagine what daily life was like in 1740 but this living history […]

Amherst

I used to drive through Amherst several times a week. I always stayed on Rt. 101 and never really explored. I knew Amherst is full of history and wonderful architecture but I was always in a hurry to get somewhere else. The center of town is one of the best places to start. There is […]
