Oh my aching ovaries…

I’m sore all over from a half day of snowmobiling, so I’m taking it easy while I check out of Jackson, New Hampshire and lazily meander my way towards Boston. I was staying at a sorta B&B (more like an extended B&B inn with additional cottages you can stay at.) After that experience I decided…

New Hampshire – Bringing the Rocky Mountains just a little bit closer to home

A Wintry Wonderland in Jackson, New Hampshire (snow covered trees and creek)

I loved New Hampshire. As soon as I peeled off I-91 to finally enter the state, I knew I was in for something special. I never realized I-91 stayed within Vermont even though the border to New Hampshire was literally only yards away, and yet I hadn’t officially crossed over until the day was nearly…

Gearing Up For New Hampshire

I can’t believe I’ll be leaving already in a mere week. I’ll be prepping Hidalgo (my ride) with a wash and wax this weekend, then start some early packing. I get home from work around 9PM the night before, so I’ll have to hit the ground running early next morning to make good time. Originally…

I’m not a planner, babe, I’m a doer!

I’m planning an ambitious road trip to the Midwest this fall that will have me covering up to 13 states, and after doing some research on what routes to take and where to go, I realized something about myself: I HATE trip planning. HATE IT. It’s one thing to do research, which I don’t mind…

Lessons learned from taking an impromptu vacation

When I left last Tuesday, I only had a rough idea of where I’d be going. I knew I wanted to take a drive through Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont, but other than that I was playing it by ear. I started out in Connecticut on Route 7, and boy I couldn’t leave that state fast…

Spiraling along in my automobile…

We had been hit with a snow storm this morning and I was already 30 minutes late for work, but I wasn’t worried. After all my SUV has traction control and all wheel drive. My black stallion ride was absolutely made for days like this. :-D I pulled out of the parking lot, hit the…
