Town and Country Inn and Resort

Shelburne, NH  2016

My final destination last weekend, after traveling up I-91 and beyond to the White Mountain region of New Hampshire.  I highly recommend the Town and Country Inn.  It is surrounded by some wonderful scenery, some of which is shown below.

Scenic View

Somewhere in Vermont  2016

I took a trip this weekend to visit the White Mountain area of New Hampshire.  Along the way, there were many scenic views where one could pull off the road and admire the view.  If I stopped at them all, I would never have gotten where I needed to be.  The structure in the center is The Comerford Development at 15 Miles Falls, a hydroelectric plant which at the time was one of the largest hydroelectric developments in the country.  It started operations in 1930 with a push of a button in the White House by President Herbert Hoover.

The View from York Hill Campus-Quinnipiac University

Hamden, CT

Located in Hamden, CT, the York Hill Campus of Quinnipiac University sits atop a pretty high hill which affords quite a view of the surrounding Connecticut countryside.

Flat Land


I had lived in the midwest for about 30 years in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan after having grown up in New Jersey.  The landscape in the midwest is quite different from that seen in Connecticut and throughout New England.  The land is very flat. The horizon is only obstructed by buildings, and trees.  There are very few hills and nary a rock to be found anywhere.  Although boring, it does have its own kind of beauty.
