Admin Mervz Posted October 3, 2005 Author Admin Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 so mervz, are you thinking closer to your area, up 89, over in the weare, concord, hillsborough, sunapee range? nice country up and over there. might still be about peak foliage season in south central NH. Yeah, i know a perfect route up 89, down through route 4 into Bristol, over to Laconia, then down past NHIS back into Concord as a backup! I'm still hopeful that we'll be alright for the North Country. The NH Foliage report http://foliage.visitnh.gov/index-flash.html says where i'm at right now, Keene, should be at "Peak", Oct 3rd. However, here in Keene it really is "just turning". So, it seems we're around 1.5 weeks behind schedual. If that is really the case, we'll be perfect for the 15th up north!

chevygal Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Here's another suggestion: Take a ride up to Squam Lake and then we can take a boat cruise around the lake and have dinner. There's also the route (can't think of the number just off the top of my head), that goes from Squam Lake in Holderness up to Tamworth. It's a winding country road with lots of old farms and fields and nice views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevygal Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Let me know if this is something everyone wants to do. I would have to make a reservation. I think we would get a discount on the lake cruise if we're a group. The last day of cruises is the 16th so we'd be ok for the 15th (weather permitting). I have some friends that own an inn up on the lake and they can give me an up to date foliage report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2002prox800 Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 not really feeling the boat cruise around the lake. we're all trying to get together for a cxruise in the trucks, dinner sounds good but I'm thinking more of a drive the trucks cruise around the state.

chevygal Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 It would be both. The cruise is only about an hour, hour and a half long. We don't have to do it, just trying to throw out some other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Mervz Posted October 4, 2005 Author Admin Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 At the point right now, things are still pretty green around here. I can't see how in a week and a half things will go to heck. I'd like to still think we can do the North Route. That would be the most exciting, with the best views, and the most places to stop, even if the colors are a little faded. Am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Mervz Posted October 5, 2005 Author Admin Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Right now, i'm planning on meeting up in Concord, NH on the 15th. The idea will be to travel north to franconia notch. Possiably ride the Cannon Tram. Also, then heading north then back east, and south into Conway. Then back to lincon via the Kangamangus highway. Then Dinner in Lincon or Concord? Zane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2002prox800 Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 I like the route plan. I love the notch, even without the old man, and the ride down 302 should look absolutly awesome this time of year. I think dinner would depend on the time we get to n. conway.
