Sunday, March 1, 2009. 8221; He spins slowly in the air. What the hell have I gotten myself into. He thinks. Finally, feeling the rope tighten through the ascender, and mustering as much strength and sheer force of will, he draws his legs up underneath, grunting loudly, stepping down in his foot loop and drags the chest ascender up just a few more inches toward the surface…. For being a trip leader, I am setting one hell of an example …. We spotted the memorial plaque for Richard “Dick” Sanfo...Sites Cav...

http://northeasttromping.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 16, 2011. So, someone I knew was having a birthday on New Years Day, and what better way to celebrate a birthday than to go out hiking and sight seeing in our beautiful little corner of the Universe called New Hampshire! After spending about an hour or so, it was to dinner at the Moat Mountain Brewery. Maker of their own microbrews (AWESOME! I might add) and they offer a wide variety of food ranging from vegan to meat lover's paradise. Then it was back home for some vegan pumpkin cake...

http://northeasttromping.blogspot.com/2012/02/hunt-for-punkintown.html
Tuesday, February 28, 2012. The Hunt for Punkintown. The demise of the town however began in the early 1900's. According to one record, a house fire in 1916 wiped out one house and the surrounding trees. Shortly thereafter, a tuberculosis outbreak in 1922 helped decrease the population and the last of the old houses burnt in the same year. Our second attempt was a touch more fruitful.

Wednesday, October 10, 2012. My Search for Floyd Collins. After about a mile and a bit of walking along the level road, two structures emerged in the grassy area in the woods and a broad smile wormed its way across my face.
