I finally made it
back! It took a business trip to get me back up to this neck
of the woods, but back just the same. I owe a big thanks to
a few former co-workers from this area for getting me back this
way. Its has been years since I have been to
New Hampshire, but it has not been for a lack of wishing to jump
in a vehicle and trek this direction. I lived in New
Hampshire about ten years ago and fell in love with just about
everything in and about this state. The people are great,
the seacoast is pretty, the towns are post card perfect, and I
will never be able to get enough of the White Mountains. If
you ever get the chance to visit New England, do your best to
experience the people and places that New Hampshire has to offer. |

This was a business
trip so I didn't get to see and visit everything that I would love
to. Like I eluded to before, New Hampshire is not lacking in
people to see, interesting history, places to see, and things to
do. Below is what I was able to squeeze in during this trip.
I say this trip because I can almost guarantee I'll be back again
with the hope that the next trip will not be another ten years
away!

I used to live in
Manchester, the largest city in New Hampshire. Where
these few pictures were taken is a spot that is within walking
distance of my old apartment downtown. This is the
Merrimack River, which originates in
Franklin, NH, passes through Manchester, and then into
Massachusetts before cutting east and emptying out in the
Atlantic Ocean at
Plum Island. One of these days I would love to get
on this water trail and get some paddling in. Once you
get out of the city as almost always along rivers, the scenery
is to die for. Not to mention, I have heard that the
fishing is pretty good... |

One day after work I
had just enough time to drive out to the shore. I
started out at
Rye Beach (to the right) and drove down the coast to
Hampton Beach. Only having about 16 miles of shoreline,
New Hampshire has the shortest amount of seacoast in New
England. Making my way south it wasn't long before I
wound up in Seabrook just before the sun went down to the
west... These places look pretty barren now (my favorite
time to come), but just wait till the summer months.
This place will be packed!

Nope, I wasn't
climbing Mount Everest. Nope, I wasn't on some reality
TV show lost in some frozen tundra somewhere! I was
fortunate enough to be in one of my favorite places in New
Hampshire. The
White Mountains! My last full day on this trip I was
able to take half a day to go skiing at
Cannon Mountain in
Franconia Notch... Sorry the pictures below turned
out so dark. But this is exactly how it looked at the
summit and on the trails. It was a cold-cold cloudy day
with a little snow coming down. |
