We had all the nieces and nephews over for sleepover movie night with their cousin (our son). Power went out for Chester at 6PM or so. That was when I poured myself a stiff G&T. Fortunately, it came back on about 20 mins later and stayed on.

MHT, after a great initial push, has dialed back flights quite a bit. I’m ~10 miles from MHT but end up flying out of Logan 95% of the time. Granted, I’m booking following the airline; if Southwest can get you where you need to go it might work. Otherwise, you’re better off flying out of Logan.

Disc golf is very fun and pretty cheap. You can get a set of three discs for about $30 that will work perfectly fine and last you (in theory) forever. We have a lot of good courses in NH, and they are all free to play. If you’re not familiar, there are “holes” just like in regular golf, but instead of being in the ground they are about 5’ tall and actually sort of look like a bowl with a pole in the middle, and chains coming down to the edges of the bowl from the center pole. You have tees just like in regular golf, and you throw one of your discs (they’re basically small frisbees) and try to get as close to the hole as possible until you’re close enough to throw them in. The courses are set up on town-owned land and wind through the woods. So you get to explore the forest (sometimes a bit too much exploring if your disc goes off course), get some exercise, and have some fun. I’m very much an amateur (read: not good at all) but have found the disc golf community to be super friendly and very non-judgemental.
