New construction in Hampton Beach

A building is going up where Mrs. Mitchell's used to be. I wonder if she's coming back?

There are flags lining the beach now. I kinda like it.

Rebuilding the band shell.

The condos which have been advertised for like three years, are finally going up. I was begining to wonder if they
ever were.

A bike race...or ride, I'm not sure. They're not wearing numbers or going very fast.

The annual Made in New Hampshire Expo was held at the Center of New Hampshire hotel in Manchester. Unfortunately, in spite of having an entire hotel to spread out in, they crammed everything into one room. If you have disabilities, or anxiety or sensory issues or even if you're just carrying a rather large purse, this is a little unpleasant.
There were things I wanted to see that I never got to, because I simply couldn't get through (I didn't appreciate being told to "stop blabbing and get the F out of the way" by some lady who was upset that I'd paused to sample a gourmet marshmallow).

And I would have preferred it if they'd offered more in the way of actual food, but of course, there weren't enough tables to eat at anyway.

In spite of that, there were plenty of interesting products available to view and sample.

And the ticket takers were really, really, nice. I had arrived with someone else (my sister) who had gone to park the car. I hadn't realized that we got hand stamps instead of paper tickets, so I had mine but she didn't have hers. And you know what? The ticket people were willing to stamp my sister's hand when she arrived, they even remembered me from before!




I wish I could talk more about the products but this post is going up so late because I have no internet access at home right now. I've forgotten a lot of the specific products I saw and sampled.
