We've gone to Gerry's family condo at Loon Mountain since day one. (That would be about 21 years ago.) It's relaxing & beautiful, high up in the White Mountains. The skiing is great (especially because you can hop on right outside the condo) and during the summer, there is no shortage of hiking, biking or swimming to be done. It's also right around the bend from the now~deceased Old Man in the Mountain and Franconia Notch. Awesome. One thing that I turned my nose way up to 21 years ago was the "cheesy~money~sucking" theme parks planted in this region. If you asked the 20 year old me to go to Whale's Tale, I'd tell you, "No way!".
Well, times change. We took the kids there on Sunday and had a ball. So what if we handed over a fat wad of cash to get in? So what if there were thousands of screaming kidlets running around
with their slightly addled parents? It was great family fun! Here's a little video of Gerry at his best going down what we affectionately call "the toilet bowl".
