The Discovery Center has a variety of interactive displays inside, and the highlight for [...]

I was not looking forward to the long ride from the Seacoast to Attitash along Route 16. Luckily the meeting was short and I was able to start the drive home before it [...]

This summer, besides being wet and cold, has been really busy. Our oldest son decided to try out for the 9U All-Star baseball team and was accepted.

We recently took a hike to South Mountain at Pawtuckaway State Park. We wanted to go on an easy first hike in the hopes that our four year old would enjoy hiking and we could do additional hikes this summer. We wanted to stay close to home, but do a walk that we have not already done. I found this hike [...]
