We were a couple weeks too late for the full bloom time in this New Hampshire 16-acre native rhododendron patch but we had a nice hike and did find a few stragglers.Walk your horses or pay two dollars fine.We spent a few days in the Finger Lakes region in New York. Love the back patio on this coffee shop in Trumansburg.(4 pics) Such a beautiful day! Went for a drive to Shelburne Falls MA to see the Bridge of Flowers again. Also there-interesting rock formations formed by glacial potholes. Several mosaics can be found on buildings downtown, and movie scenes from The Judge were filmed here in 2013. #bridgeofflowers #glacialpotholes(2 pics)Visited the Estey Organ Museum in its old mfg complex in Brattleboro Vermont today. Very interesting collection of reed, pipe, and electronic organs built by the Estey Organ Company. Including a walk-through pipe organ. Visitors are welcome to play them there too. #esteyorgan #esteyorgancompanyBeautiful day for a visit to the Hampton Beach Master Sand Sculpting Classic 2019. #hamptonbeachmastersandsculptingclassic2019Stopped in Lockport NY for a break from driving and saw this cruise ship pass thru one of the locks on the Erie Canal that runs thru the center of town. Interesting community. We were here a few years ago and took that same cruise.Early morning look at the falls before any tourists arrive for the day.-
