In our first weekend, we had a lot of fun exploring the area. We went to the Saint-Gaudens national heritage site on Saturday and it was amazing. Neither of us knew much about Saint-Gaudens before but his work is tremendous. We wandered amongst buildings dotted on a hillside looking over at Mt. Ascutney encountering sculptures and exhibits as we went. Lovely way to spend a few hours. They have concerts on Sundays during the summer although we didn't make it back there today.
That's because we journeyed about 5 minutes from our door to the 2013 League of New Hampshire Craftsmen Fair. $10 to enter and we perused the work of 200 craftsmen on the flanks of Mt. Sunapee. Funnily enough, I had been to the event 15 years ago with my mom and brother. I have a stained glass lamp with a ceramic base from it still. Today, I limited myself to a scarf and a leather backpack purse. The cloth purse I've been carrying around containing my life has gotten a bit battered in the last two months.
Continuing to love the farm stands -- lettuce, tomatoes, chard, mozzarella, corn, blueberries, etc. All so tasty.
