Winter at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center
On a recent visit to the New Hampshire Lakes Region, I knew I wanted to spend some time outside in the great outdoors. This sounds easy enough, but since the two main winter activities in the region (ice fishing and skiing) aren’t things I am qualified (or equipped) to participate in solo on a moment’s […]

Guide to Downtown Keene, New Hampshire
In the small college-town of Keene, New Hampshire (where 5,400 students make up over 1/4 of the population), you’ll find a charming downtown Main Street teeming with shops, restaurants, retro movie theater, and the quintessential New England white clapboard church. Your Kitchen Store. If you want it for your kitchen, they have it. Equally swoon-worthy […]

Carleton Bridge Swanzey, New Hampshire
Town records indicate the original bridge at this site was constructed in 1789, however, the exact date has not been verified. The current bridge was built in 1869. According to local tradition, the bridge was built by local barn builders since the truss construction of the bridge is similar to that used in barns. When it was built, a wagon fully loaded with hay was used as a standard for the height and width of the opening. The bridge was closed in June 1974 to await town appropriations for repairs, rebuilding, or reconstruction. On Flag Day, June 14, 1975, as a part of the Swanzey Bicentennial Commission program, the Carleton Bridge was painted by residents of the town. The Carleton Bridge was the smallest of the four covered bridges to be painted by the townspeople and was completed in five hours time. The bridge is now in need of major repairs. In 1979, the New Hampshire Department of Transportation estimated that it would cost $487,000 to build a new covered bridge in its place. The Carleton Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Perfect General Store
One of the many pleasures of working at Yankee is that our offices are just a short drive from one of New England’s great general stores. Like the best of its kind, the Harrisville General Store is part market, part eatery, part gallery, and part social hub. Incidentally, there were people all around me as […]

Snow Squall Meredith, Nh
We were on a 3 day holiday in Meredith at the end of March when this squall came up – saw the empty black colored docks with the contrasting white snow so I stopped for a couple of exposures….

Christmas Comes to Portsmouth
Portsmouth, New Hampshire, has many different identities. There’s Market Square, of course, and buzz of shops and restaurants that rivals Boston’s Newbury Street, minus the parking nightmares. Its compact size and sheer number locally owned stores, however, gives it a small town feel. It’s a working waterfront city, too, with tugboats and bigger ships on […]
