New Hampshire/Vermont Border – a.k.a. the Connecticut River

New England / Megan

 If you look at a map, Grafton Notch State Park is right next to the very top of New Hampshire, which is the skinniest part of that state.     Since our friend and BF met when she was an exchange student at his high school in Vermont, and she hadn’t managed a trip to

We were up here in order to show a friend from Arizona some good, quintessential Maine coast.     And we happened upon one of the best spring tides I’ve ever seen in Casco Bay.     There’s a little island just off the park coast with an osprey nest – you could have walked
