Friday - September 28

Congratulations to the Corpus Christi Saints who won their game today against Germantown Hills.    The Saints were losing 1-0 going into the 7th and won 4-1.    They are in the Final Four and play tomorrow at 10 AM.

We are in New Hampshire and it is sooo pretty,.    The day started out cloudy, cool and misty rain along the way - over 300 miles today but now settled at the Twin Mountain Motor Court and RV Park in Twin Mountain,, NH.    Stopped for a quick lunch at McDonalds in Newport, ME and the sun came out shortly after noon.    A very pretty drive.    We are surrounded by the White Mountains!

We left round 4:30 to check out the COG Railway where we'll be going tomorrow morning to the top of Mt. Washington....weather doesn't sound the best, but we'll bundle up and hope for some pretty color.    My Aunt Dee reported that on September 24, 1989, the temperature on top of the mountain was 18 degrees with 100 mph winds.     Oh my.....

 Stopped at Fabyan's Station (old train station) in Bretton Woods.    Mark had a yummy shrimp dish and I had the skillet layered with corn bread, baked beans, pulled pork, cole slaw and 4 pickle slices.    Very good and similar to what we had from the food truck at Cypress Trail. 

So, we've left Maine but what a fun and beautiful week of charming little towns, all the white churches (no matter the denomination) similar in design and the ever present steeple, meeting friends Bob and Martha for lunch, great siteseeing, shopping and eating.     We enjoyed everything from the mountains to the hills to the ocean, the many lakes and fields of broccoli, sunflowers and potatoes.

I am so very sad tonight just hearing the news that my friend, Missy's husband passed away in Las Vegas.    Butch suffered a massive stroke 4 weeks ago tomorrow night.....my heart is breaking for Missy and her family.   RIP Butch.
