Anything and everything. Seaport, Aquarium, Groton, Watch Hill and
environs - plenty to see and do.


I'd be glad to be a tour guide.


Might even take a little boat ride if you have the time - we can head
out towards The Race, around Fisher's Island and up to Point Judith or
over towards Montauck.


Hey John, you should get with Tom and I when you come up... You could
spend a day in Essex too, and hit Mystic the next morning. Downtown
Essex on the water is great in the summer, especially on a weekend.
The Grizwold Inn is a great place to eat, you can have Sandwiches at
Olive Oyl's by the water... The Essex Steamtrain and Ferry ride from
Deep River to the Shoreline and back is pretty cool too... If in
Mystic I would certainly suggest the Aquarium, and the Seaport. If
anything, we should all get together for dinner somewhere or a bbq at
my place.

Also, we plan to take a trip to Maine for a week sometime later this
summer. Mrs H would like to go on a whale watching excursion. Any info
on Maine out there? I've been to Acadia National Park, by motorcycle,
but the weather was too bad to get all the way to the top of the hill
at the park. Maybe it would be worth a visit.

Ideas?


My family owns a farm in Rye, NH, just a mile in from Rye Beach, NH. Dan
Brown of The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons fame lives in Rye
Beach, NH. My mother and sister stalked him and found out where he lived.

Back in 2005 while up there for a week we went on a wail watching tour
of Gloucester, MA. We went across the bay towards Providence. We saw
mama whales withe their babies and all. There must have been 40 or more
whales in all on that trip. Biggest problem was that the batteries in
the camera crapped out after the first whales were sighted. My sister
and her husband went on the same boat two weeks later and only saw 4
whales.

We never make it past the the silver shop across from the salt water
taffy shop in York, ME. All of the women get up from the table at
restaurant at the taffy store before the bill comes and head over to the
silver shop and leave the me with the bill.

Hell, this is sounding so good I may leave MrsH here and come by
motorcyle!

Now I've got places to go, places to eat, and people to meet. What the
hell more could anyone want? I'll check it out with SWMBO and get back
with you when we firm up some plans.

Sounds cool though!

Well, they *are* fairly smart, you know. Thanks for the whale watching
tip. I'll add that to my collection of tips for the trip.

Wait a minute. Is Gloucester in MA or ME? We're going to ME. But maybe
we'll have to stop in MA. I'd hate to do that if MA was just a typo.
