Great Granite State - the Seacoast

On today's trip, the gang traveled to Wallis Sands State Beach for a short walk. Then we went to Odiorne Point State Park to check out some tide pools and visit the Seacoast Science Center to look at different sea animals. 



We then went to downtown Portsmouth and had lunch at the River House, serving great seafood and steak. We closed the day out by shopping in Portsmouth in various shops, most importantly grabbing some boba tea.

Great Granite State - Merrimack Valley

The gang explored the Merrimack Valley for the third day of Project Week. Our first stop was in Concord, the state's capital. We got breakfast and got to see Main Street. We piled back in the vans and went to America's Stonehenge, a 4,000 year old archaeological site in Salem, NH.



They even had alpacas!


For lunch we went to Manchester and ate at Waterworks Cafe, then spent some time in downtown Manchester.



Great Granite State - White Mountains

 Today the gang started bright and early at 8:45 ready for a day full of fun. We headed towards the White Lake State Park. We went on a nice nature walk and met a friend on the lake. 

We had fun playing on the lake and decided to continue the day in Conway at the outlets. After a long morning we refueled at Fiesta Jalisco and were ready for the afternoon. We started on the Kancamangus Highway stopping at the view points to see the mountains.

 We ended the day in Lincoln at Betty and Barney Hill's abduction site and learned about the United State's first reported alien abduction.

Great Granite State

 The gang started off project week bright and early with a quick meeting before hiking up Ladd Hill. From the top there were some great views of Winnisquam, Winnipesaukee, and the Belknap Range. After the hike the gang headed into Laconia form some coffee and smoothies at the Wayfarer and Goodnatured stores. Everyone shared fries, onion rings and burgers at the Surfside burger restaurant in Meredith. After, we met back up in Meservy to discuss the day, as well as plan for tomorrow, including making sure everyone remembers necessary items for our journey to Keene and the Monadnock Region tomorrow.
