Mount Monadknock

     Before the Fall foliage was completely gone we took a drive up to Jeffrey, New Hampshire to climb the 3rd most climbed mountain in the world, Mount Monadknock.  It was an early, and chilly wake up call at 4:30 am to meet the crew.

     We started just in time to watch the sunrise.

It was a good hike up to the top and worth the view.  It was very cold at the top with 40-50 mph winds, haven't experienced that in a while.

We are loving exploring New England on our free time.

36 Hours of Fun

     Sometimes in this crazy time we are in right now, when Ryan is switching from a day to night shift for a few days or week we can accumulate a little bit of extra play time.  This time we decided to hit up a close beach in Gloucester, MA and since it was past October 1, we could bring Abbi.  We got lucky and enjoyed the last 70 degree Fall day.

Good Harbor Beach

First time in the ocean

Lots of digging and rolling in the sand

After a fun day of playing in the ocean, catching crabs, digging for oysters we headed home for some relaxation.

The next day we headed up to hike Mt. Wachusett to see more of the amazing fall foliage before Ryan started the night shift.

Sometimes we get lucky with Ryan's schedule and can enjoy an extra 12 hours of fun before he has to work the night shift.  Here's to more adventures to come!
