New Hampshire August 2- 8

    We left Great Wass feeling so happy that we'd had such a wonderful week. Mark left his hat and flip flops there, so we went back once, but were in no rush.

    We left 95 around Augusta and had a long ride across Maine on small roads. We stopped in Bethel at the visitor center for a bathroom stop. The things you have to factor in during the time of pandemic. We did not stop to eat, but snacked on things in the truck. 

    Nick did a great job of shopping for food and we had some Beyond Beef Burgers our first night.Ashley did a great job on the ceilings.

    On our first full day here we drove to Norwich to the King Arthur store to get the material to make our own bread. The store limits their capacity to just 20 people and seemed to have good precautions in place. We got everything except the Dutch oven and that we ordered on line. We also stopped at Four Corners and got corn and tomatoes (really delicious!). And, we stopped at Fogg's to get a stud finder so can put up a railing to the second floor which was taken off by Ashley who finished the ceiling in the upstairs in the spring. (And, we put up the railing successfully)

      We got wood at Budget Lumber to build closet doors similar to the ones the Hutchesons have in their loft at Great Wass. We will start with the den closet doors downstairs and then our bedroom. It is Mark's winter project.

    We floated in the lake twice; the weather was not terrific.

    We did some clean up (dump run) but no other projects. We don't really want to be out and about during the pandemic, so chose to read and relax mostly. And have good meals, of course.
