The House of Seven Gables – Salem MA
It was two in the morning the night before when we both were lamenting that we hadn’t planned anything for the next day – our weekly excursion.

Stillwater Antique Mall – Greenville Rhode Island
Yet another summer has rolled around which means it’s time to go antiquing! And I don’t mean the stuffy sort of antiquing one might expect from Rhode Island.

I got up early just… Continue reading Way Too Eventful Covered Bridge Tour -Swanzey NH
Rumford Falls & Paul Bunyan Statue – Rumford Maine
To end one day’s worth of chasing waterfalls I drove up to Rumford falls just as it was starting to get a bit dark. I hadn’t realized this was also the location of another one of the things on my list of roadside attractions – a giant Paul Bunyan statue complete with Babe the big… Continue reading Rumford Falls & Paul Bunyan Statue – Rumford Maine
