New Hampshire

Here is the only picture worth sharing from my cell phone. It's of the White mountain forest taken from Kancamagus highway. It's a good motorcycle road. Scary. I have a gopro camera can't wait to check that out.

And of course it's sideways ?

[gfdeputy2]

Its sideways only because you had that bike leaning so hard into the corners Right?

[Paula]

Yes, that's it.

[adkbuck]

That's great country.  Too bad the old man isn't still up there.  You must be a very good biker to be able to bank your bike like that and live to tell about it.

[gfdeputy2]

Actually not that hard on the Kancamagus highway or it at least feels like it

the old man was a great sight & is missed but there a ton of great stuff to see in the white mountains still

They do have a old man memorial. Think my bike is too big to lean that much. There is a sign that said hairpin curve 20mph. I thought a couple others were hairpin

[gfdeputy2]

yeah I get nervous when the the pegs scrape I know that is far enough I am headed up there next week on the bike going to probably do the white mountain tour try to hit as many of the notches as I can

I've never hear of this....where abouts is it and how long ride there is it...as a family of bikers I can always appreciate a good twisty roadway. ..

thought you were scared of heights?

[Paula]

Even rout 302 is not too bad. Not sure where your staying but I am in Litteton and if you take 93 south you have some great views

[gfdeputy2]

Oh I am but most of it isn't too bad & I throttle through the hairy sections so it goes by quicker

currently I am an hour south of Littleton  there is some nice riding between there too

Most of NH is nice riding but I love heading out through the farmlands of NY too

Haha ok. Well I hope it's not raining for you. It down poured in some spots but pretty mush misted the whole day, even in Maine.Rain makes me nervous

[Paula]

Some of our stuff is still wet so we are hanging at the pool, clouds are getting dark again

[gfdeputy2]

Hate riding in the rain took the truck to work this morning was pouring

[Paula]

At least the flood watch is gone. Rest if the week should be good. Heading to platsburg tomorrow

I love New Hampshire, its a beautiful northeastern state and I have a good friend that moved there 10 years ago to escape NYs high property taxes. Well the property taxes caught up with him, he pays 13k a year for a 2200 sq ft home on 5 acres in Exeter NH and the deer hunting is terrible. The state has an annual deer season kill of only around 12 thousand. Surely is a scenic state with beautiful forests.

[Paula]

I seen a deer on Monday hauling ass so I wouldn't run into it. Hahah

Thank goodness

  We lived in NH for 12 years.  Its a great state.  Generally very well run and the politicians truly had an ethic of serving the people. No state income tax or sales tax.  The deer hunting is definitely much tougher than NYS.  Hunting the wilderness areas of the White Mountains and to the North in Pittsburgh is a joy for any true hunter.  The woodcock and grouse hunting in the northern  and parts of the central portion of the state was fantastic.

Southern NH is expensive it is becoming northern Mass this is why when we left NY in 1987 we moved more north in the country I have a cape on 5 acres & pay less then 5K in taxes

Last year was a good year for deer hunters population is getting better average over the years is about 10,000 but the last 3 years have been over 11,000 hunting is very hard here we have a lot of thick woods & swamps most rifle shots are less then 75 yards.

but we do have a lot of nice size deer here
