Thirteen Things About The State of New Hampshire that I love
1. Old Man of the Mountain A wonderful sight before it slid from the mountain on Hubby’s birthday a few years ago.
2. Purple Lilac My favorite flower.
3. Sugar Shack’s There is nothing like going to The Sugar Shacks and having fresh boiled down maple syrup on pancakes!
4. Mount Washington A truly majestic sight to behold!
5. Hiking Trails I love to go out with Hubby and the dogs to hike around the trails. It is so beautiful here and there are so many places to go.
6. Autumn Leaves Autumn in New Hampshire is so beautiful, so glorious! If you have not been here in the fall, then make plans to do it. No place on earth can compare.
7. 13 mile coastline We only have 13 miles of shoreline in New Hampshire, but we make the most of our beaches.
8. NH Motto: Live Free or Die Some people say this is rather dramatic. I say it’s how I hope to always live my life. Free!
9. New Hampshire Ski Areas I love to snow ski and we have many places to do just that here.
10. The People New Hampshire had produced some fine people over the years, but I like the plain old ordinary people. New Hampshirites are good people!
11. NH Apples We had our own Apple Farm for many years. It’s gone now, as are so many of our friends farms. I’m happy Hubby has our fruit trees. I can still have a New Hampshire grown apple!
12. The Lakes Lake Winnipesaukee is the largest lake in New Hampshire, but we have many lakes, both big and small.
13. My home!
We built our home in 1999. We did a lot of the work ourselves. I love our home!

It sure is nice place, a beautiful place!
What a beautiful home!!! I can’t believe I’m first! Happy Thursday!
what a great list, MB! I love NH apples & maple syrup, lilacs & autumn leaves & hiking trails, the lakes & coastline, I miss the OMOTM, and of course, a few of my favorite people live in NH 🙂
Hi Mom,
I agree with all of the above. NH is a great place to live. Now, if we could only get some more professional industries to move north from Boston!
Have a great day!
Love,
Mandy
I love your home and can’t wait to meet it! One question. I like lilacs but what is up with white lilacs. Lilac is a color in the purple family – I think the white ones should be call whitelac
I love your home too, it’s gorgeous! Can I move in?
Wow! Great house! I’ve never been to NH. I’ll have to add that to the list. 🙂
Ohhh I like to hike too, I should come live by you. There isn’t much hiking around here in NJ 🙁
Really pretty house!!
Maple Syrup … Mmmm! Fresh-boiled Maple Syrup … Mmmm-er! You just gave me another thing to put into my “Things I Wish Were Easier to Find in Germany” series.
What a beautiful home. Great list, maybe someday I can visit that state.
Such a beautiful place. Definately somewhere I would consider visiting.
Well you made New Hampshire sound beautiful.
I have never been to NH, would love to see the autumn leaves. You have a beautiful home! you certainly have a lot to do in the garden. Hey, you are my kind of gal: you ski!! we do too 🙂
Wow! Sounds terrific! South East Texas (coast) is not much to write home about but the beaches are nice enough to visit now and again. Your home is beautiful! I will have to add N.H. to my “someday” vacation spot list! Thanks.
