here are some photos from my first two of many trips this fall...i like to call them the "breakthrough trips" because of the way autumn is breaking through in yellows and oranges and reds across new england, and by the way this trip allowed me to break through what could have been a very tough weekend for me. enjoy the photos...new england at its best!
the cheapest, best view of boston, from the little commuter ferry that leaves from long wharf and goes to charlestown. $1.70 each way.
the highlight of the boston aquarium. (though the sea lion/seal show was entertaining too.)
trip #2: north conway, nh for leaf-peeping (hate that term, makes it feel so wrong), shopping, and eating our way to temporary happiness. it really worked! and, there is something about nature that does give you a peace that is so much more than temporary. see our bed and breakfast, merrill farm resort, above. i give it a thumbs up!
silver cascade, somewhere on route 16 in northern new hampshire.
the famous mount washington hotel. even on a cloudy day, the setting is impeccable. need i say more?
my mom and i and the rach(a)els out to dinner on saturday night at flatbread company in north conway. people with dreads and tie-dyed t-shirts on baking flatbread pizza in a wood-fired oven = yum. we also got friendly's ice cream later.
