May 8th 2019: New Hampshire in the Morning

This morning, we decide to get Hot Cakes from the McDonald's in Malden for the little one.

He did not like it much though.

From here, I headed into Salem NH,

Town Hall, 33 Geremonty Drive

St. David's Episcopal Church

Centerpoint Community Church

then Windham NH,

Seavey Pond, 19 Gordon Mountain Road

going on a short hike along the paved Windham Rail Trail from its entrance on Mallard Road.

Next, it was on to hikes in Londonderry NH, first at the Kendall Pond Conservation Area, where the path I took is shown below in pink.

Some nice views of the brook, but none of the pond.

My last hike for the day was at the Musquash Conservation Area in town, where the path I took here is shown below in pink.

Nothing much to see of the parts I went today though.

With that, I called it a day, heading to Somerville to grab a bite at Opa Greek Yeeros, getting the Lamb Yeero Pita (Wrapped in pita bread with tzatziki sauce, tomatoes, red onions, fries, and parsley).

Definitely better than Yassou in Arlington.

August 17th 2018: Venturing into Londonderry NH

I started out this morning in Salem NH,

Fire Department

Pleasant Street United Methodist Church

St. Joseph Church

then Windham NH,

Delahunty Garden and Landscape Center

Letizio Tower

where I went on a hike at the Foster's Pond Conservation Area, where the path I took from 34 Nashua Road is shown below in pink.

I tried to find the rail bed, but ended up going on the Nancy Johnson Trail instead. Finding my way to the pond in the south, there was a decent view of it from the rail bed.

Venturing back into the woods, I passed by several wetlands areas,

getting lost before finally finding my way to Foster's Pond, where there were several views as I walked around it.

Back at my car, I headed into Londonderry NH for the first time,

Kendall Pond

Town Common

Londonderry United Methodist Church

Londonderry Presbyterian Church

Londonderry High School

Central Fire Station

Londonderry Baptist Church

then crossed the river into Merrimack NH

St. James United Methodist Church

Homestead Restaurant and Tavern

Faith Episcopal Church

before calling it a day and heading to work. After work, I went to get some ice cream from White Mountain Creamery in Newton, getting the Candy Bar flavor.
