New Hampshire and the White Mountains
This area was not originally in our plans. It is about half way between where we were at Woodstock and New Brunswick where we are going.
It turned out to a be a really cool place and although it rained quite a bit yesterday, we did get a flavor or the area.
We drove through the Catskills to Gorham, New Hampshire where we are staying at Timberland Campground, a private place that is quite nice.

All these pictures are starting to look the same, I realize, but this is really New Hampshire.
This morning, we cleaned up some of our mess and went to the Auto Road, a small windy road up to Mt. Washington, the highest peak in the Northeast. 6288 ft. When we started it was clear and beautiful out and we were hopeful that we would be one of the lucky ones to see it in clear weather. Alas, that was not to be.
Here are some images of Mt. Washington.
Unfortunately, the cloud cover closed in by the time we got to the top but that was interesting as well.
This afternoon, we went bike riding, I think I may have convinced Susan that she needs a more adequate bike. She did great, however and we had a good time.
We returned here to the campground, will eat and get ready to drive through Maine tomorrow
Our Canadian journey starts in New Brunswick for a few days before we head to Prince Edward Island. Later.

This is Tim...thanks for the update and pictures. Looks nice and cool up there...what was the temperature when you got to the summit of Mt. Washington. I think I remember it’s a very windy summit too, but maybe that’s during the winter. Sorry you missed out on a clear day at the summit.
