A weekend adventure

Last weekend we enjoyed a weekend together in southern New Hampshire.  On Saturday we visited the town of Peterborough and looked around, and in the evening we went to the 'Capitol Center for the Arts' in Concord to see John Prine in concert.  It has been several years since we saw him perform and we were not disappointed.  He played many of his classic tunes and also a selection from his new album.  For a man in his seventies he puts on a great concert and he is still very sharp-whitted and humorous.

On Sunday were drove another 40 minutes north to Winslow State Park where we were able to check-off another of the "52 With A  View" peaks.  Mount Kearsage is an easy walk of only about 1.5 miles each way, but the views from the top are spectacular.  We arrived before it got too hot and before the crowds arrived.  We were back in Connecticut in time for tea and were able to pick gooseberries before dinner.
