Back from the mountains

As usual, my trip to NH had a lot to do with food. Went to the Toasted Lab, David's restaurant, for a delicious rack of lamb on Friday, Caesar salad on Saturday. Great eggs benedict Saturday morning at Guldie's, and a so-so burger at Dairy Queen Saturday night. I remebered those burgers being a lot better.
It was great to see David, and, as a bonus, Chuck, Joannie, Zoe and Lilly, and Jimmy Gray. Lisa is a great bartender, too! Jimmy and I went up the road to the Irish pub (Shannon Door, I think) Saturday night.
Other things of interest for the two or three people reading this....
I travelled up to the summit of Mt. Washington. Cloudy and drizzling at the top, 45 mph winds, but an awesome experience. I wasn't all that comfortable going up and coming back down in the van, but I'm glad I did it. A narrow road, no guardrail, and a driver who talked with her hands.
I took quite a few pictures on the way down...it gave me something to concentrate on.
I also got to see Spider-Man 2 at the mall in North Conway. Great picture. The mall makes the RI mall look awesome. But the factory outlets, I guess, have taken the business.
I came back through Boston; it was a little slow on the lower deck, but well worth the delay. I got to check out the new bridge and the Fleet Center in detail.
Back to work tomorrow, and I get to fill in on WPRO AM afternoons this week.
