The day before Colombus Day we went for a drive in
southwestern/southcentral New Hampshire to view the foliage.
We drove a 130-mile loop: Nashua > Goffstown > Hillsboro >
Nelson > Harrisville > Dublin > Jaffrey > Peterborough > Wilton.
The foliage was rated 60% peak (in the Nashua area) to 100% peak
(in the Lake Sunapee/Monadnock areas) according to local news reports.
However it appeared very muted this year; it's been a very warm fall
(no frost yet) which slows down the colors.
The weather was nice, in
the high 60's, clear and sunny all day. All-in-all a very enjoyable
day.
