Since my last post I just wanted to share a couple of my discoveries. (well-known to folks who live here)

Cotton Valley Trail by old railroad station is wonderful. The walk is made even more interesting if you know the history of the railroad in that area. Seeing the railroad tracks emerge from the soil in places reminds me that people once road those tracks to get to the docks in town.

Bayside Grille was a great place to watch the Red Sox, Patriots or Celtics. Fun to hang around other fans and yell at the TV. I can see myself going there during the winter months on occasion.

Libby Boat Launch was a good place to launch my Sunfish. With a northwest wind you are a short ride to the beautiful, clear blue-green waters of Winter Harbor and in more daring moments...the Broads.

Winnipesaukee Chocolates was a dangerous find. I brought a bunch of chocolate bars to my colleagues at work in MA. Dark chocolate with cayenne was surprisingly good, but maple truffle was insanely delicious. They sell them at the IGA too. Love the wrappers. Great small gift.

With Labor Day weekend starting tomorrow, it's beginning to feel like a change is in the air. I'm trying to work it out so I can be here in September.
