Recently, I have been interested in learning more about the game of golf. My father and brother are avid golfers, and I have played a few times. I enjoy the fresh air, beauty of the greens, and exercise I get from playing the game. My kids are getting older, and it would be nice to [...]

I recently attended a quarterly meeting for the New Hampshire Land Surveyors Association, which was held at the Attitash Grand Summit Hotel. 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 [...]

Fall in New Hampshire is delightful, and there’s nothing better than spending a beautiful, crisp, sunny day picking apples as a family. I recently took my two young daughters to Apple Annie’s in [...]

When my family moved from Connecticut to New Hampshire in 1980, I was 10 years old. We tried to become active in the community and meet new people. One group I joined was 4-H. I was in 4-H until I graduated from high school, but that’s a story for another day. While in 4-H, we used to travel to the State fairs [...]

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. At that point, we realized that our commitment to explore New Hampshire was going to be limited. With our weekends being spent at baseball tournaments and practices, we did not travel [...]

If you drive along Route 4 between Durham and Dover Point, you will see a picturesque old wagon sitting on top of a hill at an old farm. If you drive this route in the winter, you can see hundreds of people sliding down the hill. Wagon Hill Farm is a 140 acre farm, which was purchased by [...]

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 [...]
