JACK*SS TOUR 2006 A journal of our silly little adventure |
We had planned to go somewhere this year, but didn’t
really have a goal. I can just drive
to a place get out and take a look around and move on. Driving to me is relaxing. So we planned to had north up to NH, VT, NY
and drive around. I have been going to
the |
|
Now as luck would have it, |

It’s a quick travel north into VT. If you are planning to go to VT, or NH avoid CT. Even in the middle of the night I hate traveling that way. I usually go up Interstate 87 in NY, and cut across central VT to get to NH. Well at least I was reminded why I go that way. While on the way up Kevin went to sleep on the rear bed, didn’t want to take the overhead, something about going through the front window if we stopped really fast, I told him the brakes where not that good. Whatever. |
At
about 4am, we needed to stop for fuel.
While kevin was sleeping away in the back, I have to run into this guy
filling up his rental car. He’s
telling me all about how is mother is really sick, and all the speeding
tickets he’s received coming up from |
Somewhere about 10 miles south of White River Junction VT, we pull into a rest stop. It’s filled with trucks, the sun isn’t up yet and I need to get a little shut eye. As I turn off the RV, she backfires. I was waiting for the VT state police to show up, it was loud. I just started to laugh; I think Kevin thought we where under fire. |
We got moving and stopped for breakfast. Then it was off to the |
The next morning it was off to the AMC
club at Pinkham
Notch. They have a small store
and you can get breakfast there if you get there early enough. They also have quarter showers. If you ever visit the |
Then breakfast at Glen Junction Restaurant. Kerry and I always seem to find these great little breakfast places when we travel. So I figured I would take Kevin. Yup, as good as I remember it. |
Back into the white
mountains and the |
The trail starts off from the parking lot and under Route 16. |

We took the rest of
the day and headed into |
Notice the water in the tracks. That was about 5 minutes after we got out. Yes I almost had to call for a Good Sam Club wrecker. And this was a standard pull in campground. |
After getting free we
drove to NY state and around midnight stopped at a campground in the upper |
|
|
It’s still raining as we arrive in |
|
It was cool to be there. There was also a car show going on that day, so we had to pay to get in and look around. Which was fine by me, I look old cars. Actually the best thing that happened was the car show since we could get onto the rink area itself. |

I have driven and hiked to the summit if Mount |
|
When you get to the top of the mountain there is an elevator that will take you to the top. After you walk up the long corridor. |

It takes about a minute to get to the top I’m sure the view is nice when not cloudy. |
From there, we
headed to |

It was late in the
day when we spotted this waterfall leaving |
We camped at All in all a very relaxing trip. Next year I’m thinking Knob Creek |
