  Studio Condo Taken Over by Squatters…No bedroom, no bathroom and no kitchen only a den but the theme is “Free is for me”!! In New Hampshire’s “Live Free or Die – State” there is a wild bunch moving in next door to me. Water front, Private and awesome views...for free!   Waterfront with great mountain views no condo fees or utilities…but strong swimming skills are required to retain squatter’s rights at this humble abode.      neighborhood not acceptable for two legged tenants...squatters are welcome, no rent or utilities required   It has been nearly impossible to evict these over-sized rodents as they generally hide when the authorities are around. These squatters are wanted on destruction of property and several noise ordinance infractions.                                           ...

I took this picture this morning (like a lot of mornings) on the Kancamagus National Forest Scenic highway. But something was a bit different the leaves seem to form a heat shape. I would have loved this shot either way, but this is a pretty nice way to start the day. Hancock Sight seeing Vista of Rte 112, Lincoln New Hampshire.    While I have your attention I'll share a few more stellar shots from today.  Hope you can make out the two beaver dams in the middle of the shot...this is a secluded spot on Rte 112 The Pemigewasset look-out point off the Kancamagus scenic highway (rte 112) less than 10 mile from town.

         Unless you have traveled through Lincoln N.H.  before, these Indian names will be foreign to you:   The Kancamagus scenic hignway connects Lincoln to Conway New Hampshire...and is 35 miles of wilderness with periodic look out points along the way. Here is one on the scenic stops where you can pull over and take a photo.      Also running along the Kanc (as the locals call it) is the Pemigewasset River...name for the Pemigewasset Indian tribe that once inhabited the area...Here after called the "Pemi".    Looking east on the Pemi.   Another look out point facing west...as the sun is coming up in the east.            One of the North facing views...with the sun behind the shot to the south the colors really glow.           Columbus Day Weekend is always a busy time for a trip ove...

Weird rain plagued us last night. The air felt tropical, which is strange this far up in New Hampshire. It poured and poured last night, I took this photo of the pond in my back yard this morning and the one below came from a recent shot before the rain moved in.   That is full one very full pond.                   Water is up 6-7 feet since this morning    This is the average fall look of the pond. I took this photo September 27th...three days ago...but it has rained 4 inches since then and we are expecting 4 more today....The picture below is the same location October 1st...9:15 am. When the rain lets up there will be no evidence of the shore-line, the water will be up in to the roots of the trees along the banks of the Pemigewasset river.If I get the chance I will add a follow up sho...

As I look across the street these trees struck me as being out of order...not the normal before and after shot. Nature has it's own way of changing the order of things it doesn't always conform to what we expect. My Real estate office is on the Kancamagus Scenic highway, and so are some of my fury and feathered friends, come to see the foliage and you may get more than you bargained for.      A little patriotic foliage, with the soon to be white ski slopes peaking out in the background. It's not that I'm lazy, but these were all taken from the parking lot at my office...I had to crop out the buildings If you think these Foliage shots are pretty...drive 5 miles up the Kancamagus scenic highway and you see brilliant colors and far less trees that still have green in the foliage.  Less tha...

I get a kick out of the retailers who try to force consumers to buy early as if they will run out of inventory? I was in a local store over Labor day and they were putting out Halloween Candy...Really Come on!! But when it comes to the up-coming recreational season securing your home away from home...it is not to early. If you want a place for your family this winter act now, our Loon mountain area properties are running out and will all be gone soon!    Lincolnwoods Ranger station on the Kancamagus scenic highway in Lincoln New Hampshire September 21. When I stopped to take this shot of the early foliage this morning my car thermometer read 38 degrees. On to the case in point here is what I have left for 6 month seasonal rentals...in the Loon Mountain ski area.   .... The Links condomi...

Kids are back to school, but the heat remains 94 in Northern NH today...what the hell. I was bent and determined to hit the river on such an Unusually hot Day in the Mountains. My wife was off to some art classes out of state, our son with new car...graces us for food and shelter. Even though it was really warm for September 1st...I decided I was free and going to play golf. There are some nice spots along the river that the golf course runs. I was here to play not swim, The wish was no swimming for my golf balls as well (if you catch my drift). the river was as clear as glass today...Hurricanes near the coast but hardly a breath of air here. Almost home the 17th hole is in sight September 1st 2010....No one is thinking of the fall when it 94 degrees out.     September 1st, may not sign...

  New Hampshire Scottish Highland Games: Sept 17-19th 2010.       Loon Mountain Resort – Lincoln New Hampshire   The Highland games originated in Scotland, as a way to bring the clans together to celebrate “Celtic Culture”. The Heritage of the homeland has been reenacted in the mountains of New Hampshire for the past 35 years. The Colors of the clans can be seen in the fabric of their member’s kilt. The competition comes in many forms from the brute strength to the delicate steps of the dance. Come to Loon Mtn and see the athletes toss the Caber, hear the Bagpipes and the marching bands and experience the Gaelic culture.   The choice of holding the Highland Games in the White Mountains, allows a decidedly colorful field of onlookers…Foliage nears its peak and the crowd offers a rainbow ...

I wanted to knock out a hike before I spend 3 hours in the office...So a quick trip up Bald Knob in Fanconia Notch State Park. Cannon Mountain in the back ground with its ski trails may look strange to you, but I'm not ready for the white stuff just yet. Phone calls, emails, and a listing presentations...then off for the rest of the day, I work in the White Mountain Vacation home business Near Loon Mountain ski area...So Wednesday and Thursday are my Weekends. I have to mow about 5 acres with a brush cutter ever couple of weeks so time to hit the field. Four hours to Mow the lawn...But time to think about all that is due for tomorrow, and through the weekend. The Bonus for hard work on a hot day is the choice of pond...or river when I'm done. The pond is a dit dirty, my gravel pit excav...

  The Kancamagus…It’s much harder to say than it is to drive, with the exception of the winter (then it’s an even match). This 26.5 mile road that runs East to West – Conway to Lincoln there are no commercial buildings along the entire route, if you start on either end your tank had better not be near empty. The first point of interest along the route is the Lincoln-Woods ranger station. It is noted for the cable bridge that spans the Pemigewasset river (another tongue twister), and was built along an old railroad bed used long ago in the timber and paper mills. The trail head at Lincoln woods allows hikes to access the famous Appalachian mountain trail. It also is an easy hike to swimming and camping sites (and requires a White Mountain national park sticker). The Kanc –as the locals c...
