Monster Mini Golf – Seekonk MA

Last week’s adventure was a little different as the entire point of it was to give some kids one last hurrah before the end of summer vacation which these days isn’t really as easy at it sounds… still I agreed to drive as mini golf sounded plenty reasonable to me. And monsters make for a… Continue reading Monster Mini Golf – Seekonk MA

A Quick Winter Update and a Reminder Spring is Coming!

So I admit I didn’t get out much this winter but I still have been busy figuring out what to do with spring once it gets here. I have scheduled myself to visit more ruins, castles, haunted places, light houses, quirky one-of-a-kind mom and pop shops, perhaps a few farms, as well as more nature trails and museums. Who knows, I might even indulge in another passion – food! And to add to the excitement I am expanding to my repertoire of photos and writing with my very first video! I am hoping future videos will include interviews with more interesting local personalities, or at least with more subject matter than just me blathering on! ENJOY!

If you are enjoying Catching Marbles please consider donating to my limited gas money fund so I can continue going on and sharing my adventures with you!

Even so I still needed to get out… so I was more than happy to be a seat filler at the local… Continue reading Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox – Keene Sentinel Theater

Progress Continues on Daisy the Catching Marbles Art Car…

I haven’t driven Daisy much lately. She’s in need of a few repairs I am saving up for so I have been only using her for local errands while borrowing other cars to go on my adventures. This is slightly distressing. I love Daisy! But today I took her all the way to Keene and… Continue reading Progress Continues on Daisy the Catching Marbles Art Car…

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
