At the hostel where I am staying there is a lake on which I paddled in a canoe this morning. Over the far side in amongst the reeds and grasses there was a small stream carved out, which had been dammed by beavers. I`d never seen a beaver dam before so this was very cool.
After planning my route and transcribing Google`s complicated instructions I hit the road. I avoided the freeways and drove only on local routes, which meant I could see lots of quaint New England villages. They all have several things in common: clean, tree-lined, and with white buildings everywhere. Very nice.
I stopped in NH`s capital, Concord, on my way through. The state has a very small population and the capital city is tiny, far smaller than even Dunstable.
I am staying in Conway, New Hampshire, in the tip of the Appalachian mountains in the White Mountains range. It`s a very nice little town.
