New England, Day Two

After sleeping in from our busy day yesterday
New England Day One
Avery got all dressed up for 4th of July today!

After breakfast, we headed up to Wakefield, NH to see our property up on the pond.  It is a completely undevelopled plot of multiple acres on a small pond with a stream through the property.

Avery really loved trecking through the trees and branches

We trecked far enough into the forest to find the small pond


Then we found the stream

Avery and mommy dipped their toes into the water



And hung out on a rock on a small side stream


Jim found an old concrete structure, two abutments and a narrow concrete bridge.  We have no idea what it was used for, possibly and old dam or mill (It is way to narrow to have been a railroad or road)


Then we drove down to the town beach near the center of Wakefield.  Avery loved playing in the shallow water while Jim swam in the deeper part.

The water was very very clear!

We then headed down to Dover to go to Newicks Seafood to get some fresh lobster!

The table was overlooking the bay

And the dock out our window was where the lobster boats pulled up to to unload fresh caught lobster right into the restaurant!

We should note that Avery really loves lobster!  She ate a lot of it from our plates!

We then walked around the bay

And saw a neat storm cloud rolling in so we headed back into the car and drove home to Manchester

At home, Avery really loves playing with mom's dog Bella, she just giggles and giggles as Bella runs like a spark plug around her!

Avery is in bed before fireworks start, so we just stayed in and watched the Boston fireworks show on TV.  Happy 4th of July!!!
