white mountains 2020

After breakfast, Andy and I headed north to Berlin today. Destination.... Jericho Mountain National Park. It was worth the hour trip. We jad this beautiful lake to ourselves. We saw tons of turtles.... and an Eagle flew over our heads.  We enjoyed watching all the ATVs driving through town..... but I know even if Andy won't admit it.... he was wishing he was on that instead of the kayak. But non the less we enjoyed a great picnic lunch, and made the hour ride home. Meanwhile mom and Ed visited a few stores.... and got some tasty treats (more on that later) After we got home and showered we headed over to their trailer. Tonights menu steak, (salmon for Kathy), lobster tails, baked potato, corn on the cob, salad and fresh fruit. After dinner we had a campfire...after Andy chopped some wood. Apple pie ala mode, baked apples, and ice cream sundaes were on the menu. Mom bought some delicious sauces we incorporated into everything. Good night!!!

This morning we got up and showered and ate breakfast of breakfast sandwiches. Andy and Kathy went to explore the campground. Then we made our plans for the day.... to keep socially distance since the weekend is crowded.... we decided to drive all around the White Mountain National Forest. We packed a picnic lynch and headed out. We drove across the Kancamangus Highway .. of course as Kathy got harassed for the infamous van trip across it... with her gas light on. Those not familiar... its 32 miles long with no gas stations. The picnic areas on here were packed so we chose not to stop. It was amazing to see how dried up the water was. We ended up "picnicing in a parking lot". We continued through Lincoln up past Echo lake. Then we cut across through Gorham and finally down the otherside. We saw many sights and beautiful  scenery.... but NO moose. When we got back, we had a delicious supper of grilled chicken, anx roasted veggies and potatoes. The fire was better t...
