Fall In New Hampshire

Here are a few more pics of our New Hampshire vacation. They were taken before the snowstorm.  We took a walk around Massabesic Lake.  There was a loon diving in and out of the water.  We were lucky to even get a picture.






 Portsmouth, NH  harbor.






We spent sometime downtown, doing some shopping and taking pictures of the architecture. 




I love taking pictures of doors and this house had a great one.



Finally we had lunch at the Blue Mermaid.  It is Rachel Ray's Portsmouth Pick.


And Cindy's favorite too.



I am linking up with these two sites 
Outdoor Wednesday at A Southern Daydreamer 
Stop on over and see some beautiful shots there

Have a good week everyone.  Until next time.

You're right--so fortunate that you were able to enjoy a New Hampshire fall before the freak snow storm caused so much trouble. I especially appreciated the lake photos and the way you captured the water reeds(?)growing along the banks.

Thanks for sharing your photos. Starting to wonder if we'll ever have a real fall here in NYC. Trees just began to turn colors when the snowstorm hit. Week before that, the wind blew many of the leaves off the trees.
