We’ve just returned from a two week stay at Apple Hill Campground in Bethlehem, NH. What a time we had! Despite the fact we began our adventure on Memorial Day weekend, Apple Hill was a peaceful place to retreat after a day of touring. Before we even got Waldo settled in, I got to see […]

Dorchester
I was driving along a dirt road, coming from Groton, unsure if I would know when I crossed the town line, when I found this lovely welcoming sign… Most of the time, when I am on back roads, all I see is the marker placed by the state. A vertical sign, green with white lettering […]
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 […]
Springfield
Springfield is a town not to be missed if you like beautiful scenery and outdoor activities! Nearly 30% of the town is conservation lands and recreational opportunities abound. Toad and I did a little bit of off-roading, but my main goal was to get to Gardner Memorial Wayside Park. The drive along Rt. 4A takes you […]
Chesterfield
Chesterfield is an amazing and friendly town with so much to offer. I hiked Chesterfield Gorge and I was amazed how quiet it was given that the parking area is on the side of Rt.9 For those of you that follow my blog, you’ll probably have seen the post I wrote specifically about the gorge […]
Francestown
I was quite happy to be out and about with the weather starting to turn spring like. I saw my first real sign of spring while I was in Francestown. In front of a lovely old farm house, I saw my first crocus of the year… The snow melt has filled the streams and brooks […]
Keene
It has taken me several months to get up the courage to tackle a city. There is just so much to see, I wasn’t sure how I wanted to go about it. I finally decided that Keene would be the first city I would tour. It is about 1/2 an hour from my house and […]
Troy
It was great to see the sun this week while I was touring Troy. Troy is a beautiful and historic town. There were very few roads we that traveled where didn’t see magnificent views of Mt. Monadnock… One of the best views of Mt. Monadnock we found was at Monadnock Berries … While we were there, I visited […]
Marlborough
The winter skies of March are starting to bring me down. Both times this week when I traveled to the rural town of Marlborough, it was spitting snow. While snow-covered trees and roads can make for some peaceful feeling photos, the grey skies leave me longing for spring. But…March does herald the beginning of maple […]
Greenville
Greenville is one of New Hampshire’s smallest towns at only 6.9 square miles. It is also the 3rd youngest town in New Hampshire. I was worried that I wouldn’t find enough to blog about, but, boy was I wrong! The center of town is rich in history with old mills, now repurposed for businesses and […]
