An excursion to New Hampshire and Maine

After much coffee, yogurt and cranberry crunch cereal we headed up North with our dog Gidget past Manchester, Concord and Franconia Notch to tour New Hampshire and central Maine. The day was beautiful with clear blue skies and only the occasional white fluffy cloud. The trees were just starting to leaf out but less so as we headed North. There was still snow on some of the otherwise green slopes of Cannon Mountain and of course, the top of Mount Washington shown white in the distance. In fact, the road to the top of the mountain was closed half way up to the top due to snow and ice. The ranger still wanted to charge us $20 for going four miles on the portion that was open so we demurred. After steak tips in Conway NH; our little group headed East past Sebago lake to the shore and South Freeport. My boat was sitting “on the hard” patiently waiting for it’s spring make over which should happen later in the week after Mom has returned to her place on the lake in Ohio.
