Markey’s Seafood – Portsmouth NH

A few days ago a friend invited me to meet him at the Deerfield Fair. I said sure, I could use a day out, and we planned to meet each other at noon. Sounds good! Until I almost got to the exit into Deerfield, there were cars lined up for a mile in the break… Continue reading Markey’s Seafood – Portsmouth NH

Swamp Road Trail and Turn-Off Sharon NH

I tried to be good today and plan where I was going ā€“ but the Fates had other ideas. I was going to go conquer an old foe ā€“ Mount Monadnock.

House by the Side of the Road Plant Nursery – Wilton NH

Today was such a gorgeous day that I felt like spending a bit of it haplessly wandering. I had decided to go in the direction of a covered bridge and see if there was anything else interesting along the way. The other thing interesting turned out to be an enormous plant nursery I have passed… Continue reading House by the Side of the Road Plant Nursery – Wilton NH

Sculpture Garden at The Andrea’s Institute for Art – Brookline NH

About a week ago I was asked to do a group trip, which I am not adverse to, that would be somewhat local and appropriate to bring a four year old. So I thought the sculpture garden in Brookline might be the ticket. I had heard there were all sorts of large sculptures nestled in… Continue reading Sculpture Garden at The Andrea’s Institute for Art – Brookline NH

Quincy Bog – Rumney New Hampshire

So after my little Polar Cave adventure I decided I still had a little time to do something more appropriate for an adult, perhaps a good old fashioned hike into the woods? I had noticed signs coming up for ā€œQuincy Bogā€ and Iā€™m a bit of a sucker at stopping at bogs, mostly because I… Continue reading Quincy Bog – Rumney New Hampshire

Polar Caves – Rumney New Hampshire

This morning I decided to go out for another adventure and it occurred to me that I have yet to see any caves in New England. I wasnā€™t even sure if we have any caves but a quick Google search landed me at the Polar Caves in Rumney NH, which is about two hours away.… Continue reading Polar Caves – Rumney New Hampshire

Hollis Town Forest – Hollis New Hampshire

Today was a gorgeous day for wandering! So I hopped in the car and started to drive randomly in a direction I decided upon earlier.

It turned out being… Continue reading Hollis Town Forest – Hollis New Hampshire

The Flume Gorge – Lincoln New Hampshire

Between my body not getting the hint itā€™s go time, and a bunch of issues at home, I have been severely pokey in getting this yearā€™s traveling started, but today I took my first little road trip of the season, and it was goddamn amazing!

Old Woods Trail: Melting Snow Edition Rindge NH

Today Mother Nature decided to bless us with 48 degree weather and a light drizzling rain which did a fantastic job of blanketing the town in dragonā€™s breath and washing a good deal of snow away. I figured it was the perfect time go out for a little walk, take a few spring snaps, and… Continue reading Old Woods Trail: Melting Snow Edition Rindge NH
