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 […]

Croydon
Croydon was quite an adventure. I knew before I headed out, Toad (I finally named the Jeep) and I would get to have some fun. There are miles and miles of Class VI roads in Croydon, a true 4×4 playground… As I splashed along, I wondered about the 12′ high fence on the side of […]
Lempster
Aside from electricity, indoor plumbing and a few paved roads, I doubt much has changed in Lempster in the last 200 or so years. This quiet charm easily takes you back to simpler times. The “center” of town is at the intersection of Rt. 10, 2nd NH Turnpike and Lempster Mountain Road. If you are […]
Sunapee
Steve and I had been to Lake Sunapee several times but never really explored what the rest of the town had to offer. We had been seriously missing out! There are several other lakes and ponds worth a visit. One of them is Mountain View Lake… Alden of Sunapee uses this beautiful lake for kayak […]
Newport
Memorial Day weekend brought my annual trek in Waldo to stay in a campground and explore the town around me. This year Steve and I packed up and headed to Newport. We stayed at the Crow’s Nest Campground, right off Rt. 10. We’ve stayed there several times before and the owners, Andy and Eva, have […]
Westmoreland
I’ve finally recovered from surgery enough to get out and about again. I still have some restrictions, but it sure felt good to be out. Luckily the weather the last few weeks had been pretty rainy and cold, so I didn’t really miss going out. This week, I visited the town of Westmoreland and found […]
Brookline
My tour of Brookline brought me several pleasant surprises. As I drove down roads I have driven many times before, I took the time to really take in my surroundings. One of the first things I noticed was a sign which read “Andres Institute of Art and Sculpture Park 1 1/2 miles – left” I’ve […]
Lyndeborough
Spring in almost upon us here in New Hampshire. There are certainly plenty of signs, even if the temps are still in the mid 30’s… Another sure sign of spring is the maple sap collection buckets… Which eventually make their way to the sugar house… And it never hurts to have an arch bridge […]
Rye
Rye is my favorite coastal town in New Hampshire. It boasts 3 state parks and plenty of places to sit quietly and watch the waves. I couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve been to Rye over the years or all of the fun I’ve had there. I decided to dig out some older images […]
Lincoln
Lincoln is truly a town for all seasons. In the warmer months you can visit Whale’s Tale Water Park, ride the Hobo Railroad, and visit Clark’s Trading Post. In the fall, there is nothing more beautiful than a ride along the Kancamagus Highway. The foliage and views are unbelievable. That leaves winter, what to do […]
