It was a beautiful, sunny day. We loaded the cars up with food, folding chairs, pillows, charcoal, games, books, grilling tools, and sweaters for the cold evenings. It would take us 3 1/2 short hours to reach our destination, through Boston Thursday afternoon traffic, Massachusetts, toll roads, and on into New Hampshire with "Moose Crossing" signs. It would have been nice to see a moose.
We rented two cabins in North Woodstock that had a tranquil stream in the back. The one room cabin had a mini-fridge and microwave. The two room cabin had a "kitchenette" which consisted of two electric burners, a coffee pot, and a mini-sink. One room had a bed and the "second" room had a futon that Jeremy had the pleasure of trying to sleep on. It was a new adventure every night!
We had fun cooking on the grill. One night we had burgers and chicken sausage and another we had chicken, sausage, veggie kebobs. One night we went to eat at the Woodstock Inn Brewery. The portion sizes were outrageous! Nicholas had a meatloaf sandwich topped with mashed potatoes.
There was a little horseshoe playing, a little reading, a little s'more making, a lot of sitting around the fire, some Settlers playing, hiking, walking, glass slumping experiments, and lots of dirt. I had a lot of fun, enjoy camping/hiking/etc., but I really enjoyed taking a shower in my shower with my towels and no dirt! I am mentioned my feelings on dirt before.
The "moose crossing" signs are big lies! Moose are mythical creatures - we don't believe they really exist!
