When we visit Grandma and Grandpa, we always go to the Four Aces Diner. I like the yogurt with King Arthur Flour granola and real Vermont maple syrup.

Later, Grandpa and I went fishing on Eastman Lake. I caught a lot of algae!

The North Haverhill Fair was going on while we were in New Hampshire. So, of course, we had to go so I could get another credit!
This turned out to be the worst roller coaster I’ve ever ridden. See that cord behind me? This coaster was literally plugged in to the train the whole time. (But it’s a credit!)
Grandma is not much of a roller coaster fan, so she just accompanied me us.
Mommy and I went on a swing ride, and it was pretty nauseating.
But a fair is a fair, and I still had an awesome time!
We flew across the country for our annual trip to New Hampshire to visit Grandma and Grandpa!
After some rest from our red eye flight, we visited Grandpa’s HAM radio club and I got to learn a little bit about how it works.
I waded in Eastman Lake while Grandpa and Daddy drove the boat.
And, oh look! I convinced everyone to go to Six Flags New England, where I got four new coaster credits! I also met another coaster enthusiast in line for Thunderbolt, and it was really fun to talk to him.
There was a cool train track in Vermont.
Of course, I had my annual trip to a bookstore where I relaxed on the stairs. In fact, we went to two bookstores this year where I relaxed on the stairs!
We went out for pizza one night by the Contoocook River and walked over this cool covered bridge.

Fireplace!!! (We are thankful for fireplaces.)
It was snowy and icy outside, which was my excuse for the perfect day of lounging around.
Grandma and I had a “draw off,” which will become our new evening tradition while I’m here.
On our first full day in New Hampshire, it snowed!
It was cold and slushy and I managed to stay outside for about ten minutes, but I packed a lot in. Like making tiny snowmen with Grandpa.
And sledding down Winter Hill Road. I wonder why they call it Winter Hill. Hmmmmm…
On the day before Thanksgiving, we headed to The Barn Cafe in Claremont, NH. Grandpa owns this building with his buddy, Gene. And Josh, the cafe’s owner, turned it into a friendly little place.
But, most importantly…we found out which way it is to Vermont!
On Thanksgiving Day, I went out in the snow and braved the cold. (It was REALLY cold.)
And on our last day before leaving, we visited Gene in Claremont and he put me to work in his drafting office.
On our final day in New Hampshire, we went out to breakfast and Hugs had a great time frolicking outside.
After breakfast, we went out to the lake.
I got all geared up for a big outing on the inflatable kayak. I named the boat Chillo. I named Grandpa’s other kayaks Lenny and Dottie.
After Mommy, Daddy, and I all went out, Grandpa took it for a spin, too.
When we got back home, Grandma read me a story as we began to wind down for our trip back to Portland.
