yep, Hollis is a great town, and often overlooked. not sure why. Like BaB's husband, I had felt that if I didn't go to college outside of New England, I'd never see any more of the country than my cousins in NJ! I've seen enough. I wannacomehome! 
WCH--I am right there with you! Having lived in Brookline(NH)10 yrs ago, and wanting to see more of the country--even wanting my kids to experience more diversity---I've seen enough! If only I'd known it was NOT going to be the idealistic experience my immaturity imagined, I wouldn't have agreed to leave here & raise my family in SoCal in the first place! I kicked myself for a long time for taking NH life for granted, and am so grateful to be back.
I think Hollis is overlooked largely because of the restricted growth. Lots of people want those brand new McMansions. Nearby Groton, MA, is popular, and is growing more rapidly, and seems more yuppieish than Hollis, which really has maintained a bit of integrity, as in, not everyone here is a trendy BMW driver (no offense to anyone, of course).
Kayaking is fun! I love canoeing also, and am looking forward to doing it again next Spring/Summer. Have you used the Nashua Rail Trail? Very nice bike/running/walking/equestrian path, around 12 miles long.

I think VALERIE C was going to help him out, with buying & or looking

Anyway, hopefully he & his family are doing well, and they have moved to
NH!

You are too funny "DARE TO DREAM"!! Ha Ha Ha!! However, I do not think
that she is that "type" of REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL, she is one of the
GOOD ONES! And that is hard to find! Really, she is
DIFFERENT from the rest!! We are lucky to have her!!
Hopefully we will hear from her soon! If not we will have to send a search
party for all of them ASAP! 
VALERIE C, please tell us where REMEMBER-VOLTAIRE IS!
"DARE TO DREAM", What about if they never made it to meeting with her...
Oh, well hopefully one of them will chime in soon!
WHERE ARE YOU REMEMBER-VOLTAIRE!!!??
Take care everyone,

I've heard the same thing said about Guam from others too...at least there was some good of it.
Glad to see your posts. It's nice to have your input on NH, since you've lived in California before too. Except I'm still trying to figure out why anyone would want to drive to Vegas, voluntarily anyway! |

You both are too funny! In another thread Valerie mentioned they visited & were probably heading back home. I'd like to hear how his visit went too. Hopefully he'll report back to us! |
