Ohhhh I love the snowy pics, especially now that it is sooo hot out my way. They give me a feeling of coolness if even for a moment. Thanks Verseau, and keep em coming

Verseau,

Thank you Thank you Thank you for the gorgeous pictures! I got back home yesterday from being holed up in a safe place hiding from hurricane Gustav and truly enjoyed each and every one of your beautiful pics! I had gotten into the habit of looking at the pic thread each night before bed and found that I'd usually have very pleasant dreams about something in one of the pics, but after not having electricity for a week, I wasn't able to see them and was starting to dream of things like oppressive humid heat (think the swamp thing scenes) and giant mosquitoes that were attracted to the 'scent' we were all wearing after having minimal showers and lots of sweat. I actually even heard that 'bzzzzzzzzz' you get in your ears right after you turn out the light, just knowing they were waiting to attack me! It was horrific!!!! Anyway, I just drooled over your pics last night and had the most wonderful, COLD, snowy dream last night. It was just delightful! So, see, you don't even know me and you've made a huge difference in my life. I can sleep in peace again at night and it also makes me realize that the time we still have to put in here will be worth every leaf turning, every snowflake, every smell of fresh in the air that we will get to enjoy once we do retire. BUT, you've also confused me. I had my mind set on moving into Coos County, up somewhere like Colebrook or around that area, and now, seeing all these towns by name, I'm all up in the air again! Maybe I'll just have to pick 10 (or 40) and go to each one before I decide for sure.... Please keep on with the pictures, though. You have no idea how much they inspire me to keep on keeping on when I can't be there!

[Verseau]

Carole, I'm so happy and flattered that you enjoy my photos so much. The beauty of NH can be magical, huh? It's wonderful that they've had a positive impact on your life and ... well, here's more for you!

Some "P" photos... quite a few of these:

Wow wow wow, the pictures of Downtown, Prescott Park and the gardens, of Strawberry bank, and even the cemetery around the corner - absolutely gorgeous and I can see each and every thing I so miss - just like I remember walking those streets myself. The gardens in Prescott Park is where my cousin got married - beautiful setting huh?

Thanks for these and all the other pictures as well. Teaches us "natives" about towns we probably never knew existed or never visited at least. Thanks for the geography lessons every day

[grouseking]

Those Rumney pics look like Stinson Mtn to me, am I right? You hiked on a much clearer day than I was able to. Did you take the snowmobile trail, or hiking trail? Sometime I'll take the snowmobile trail to see if there is any difference up there. My hike up Stinson Mtn was also the first time I saw a bear in the wild...a big fat one, passed out in the tree after gorging on raspberries. :-p

Great pics yourself. I've evjoyed browsing thru them all, and saying..."hey, I've been there before!"

[Verseau]

Are you from the Rumney area or do you just get around the state a lot?

Yeah, those pics are from Stinson Mtn. The clear weather was great because we could see both Newfound and Squam from the summit.

We actually took the hiking trail up, but the snowmobile trail down. The snowmobile trail is probably the easier of the two because it's so level, but has a steady incline with no flat sections. You can descend pretty quickly on it (without worrying too much about tripping over something), although the path is pretty overgrown in spots during the summer.

Didn't see any bears, though.

I went to school at Plymouth State, so Rumney was practically my backyard for a few years. But yes, I do get around quite frequently. I'm an avid hiker. :-D RIght now I live in Lebanon.

Looking at your pics, I'm assuming you are from the the Plymouth area. Have you ever hiked up Mt Prospect in Holderness? I went up this mtn in April a few years ago, and was very surprised by the views.





Looking up towards the Kinsmans, Cannon, and Franconia Notch


In these next pics, you can see views over towards Mts Morgan, Percival, and Rattlesnake. Oh, and the southern Whites, near Sandwich Mtn.

[Verseau]

Great photos! I'm actually from Bristol, but I haven't hiked Mt. Prospect. I did recently hike Percival and Morgan, though (pictures are in my "H" post a few pages back). The views from those summits between the lakes and mountains are all great.
