I'm glad you got a picture of the blue sky and Mt Washington. I was just up there last weekend and wanted so badly to stop and take a picture because it's a rare day to have a cloudless day in NH and to have snow on the mountains. I didn't have my camera with me or i would have stopped traffic just to get a snap shot. It was lovely weather in the 40's when we were there. my husband went snow machining and had his first fear of the slowly melting lakes (you know when the top layer is 4" of slush but there's another 1 foot of ice underneath it) haha.
Wow, how times have changed. can't blame the price increase on gas since it doesn't use gas.
The railway is $59 for adults and it takes 3 hours round trip and you only have 20 minutes on the summit.
The van guided tour is only $26 and takes 1 1/2 hours round trip and you have 30 minutes at the summit. i did the van tour when i went up.
Danielle - That picture was taken when my mom and dad were on their honeymoon - When I told mom what the price is now, she couldn't believe it She stayed at the bottom while Dad went up on the rail. I took that picture off a DVD that had been made from the old 38-mm movies (I think that's what the original was?). There are scenes from around Franconia notch that are still easily recognized, which I found kinda neat
Suzet, thank you for sharing some of your world with us! It looks just beautiful there--how far from Ventura Beach do you live? Is that a place that you get to often, just to chill out and relax? I find the beach to be one of the most relaxing places, especially in the off season, when I can bring the dog and let him off-leash, watch the horses, etc. THAT season is just about over! Gee, I guess though, in SoCal, there IS no off-season for the beach
