Found a New England

To Marlow, New Hampshire staying on Sand Pond with old friend John Wrigley. We met up at Keene N.H. and carried on out into the sticks in convoy, John in his Honda Pilot. Yesterday we had lunch at Schenectady, N.Y. after following highway 5S to Fort Plains along the ridge avoiding the New York Thruway. Schenectady is a General Electric town which has been down but appears to be on the way back. Across the Hudson into Vermont, quick stop at Bennington Battle Monument, and on via Hogback Mountain to Keene. Trip to Green Mountain Railroad at Bellows Falls today across the Connecticut river back into Vermont. Marvelous railroad waiting room. Heavy heavy rain. Drove through Walpole, N.H. - a classic New England white-clapboard town.
