New England: We Should Explore, Part Two

So as of right now, I have an ever growing list of things that I would like to do before moving out of New England. For my sanity's sake I should probably start actually doing things so the list will, in the very least, not get any bigger.

Right now, lists stand as:

1. Climb Mt. Monadnok
2. Holiday trip to Yankee Candle
3. Portland, ME weekend
4. Touring Newport RI
5. Great Barrington Farmer's Market
6. King Richard's Fair

I would like to add to the list some pretty awesome action items if I may say so myself:

The Topsfield Fair: I grew up in Central Mass so the nearest fair was the Big E, which I have only ever been too once... but it required us to drive an hour and a a half to Western Mass. Some of my best friends continue to visit and rave about the Topsfield fair in Topsfield, MA. This is the year I go, I am determined. I need me some farm animals, some family fun and a ferris wheel... Who am I kidding... I am going for the fried food, all of it. Mmmmmmmm....

Goal to see every local sports team: Being in New England we have a multitude of great sports teams. We have the awesome, ultimate football team the New England Patriots, we have the Glorious Red Sox for baseball fans (which is basically everyone), the Boston Celtics are our town's basketball team, then there is hockey gold in the form our Boston Bruins, aaaand Major League Soccah team the Revolution. Now I have been to a pre-season Pats game and soooo many Red Sox games but I really do want to experience it with my manfriend. He's my boo and sharing is caring.

Vermont Foliage: I read some where that of the top spots for Fall Foliage 3 out of 5 are in Vermont. Obvi, I want to see what awesomeness that these foliage judges are raving about. I get good foliage in Mass but if I can see great, why not?! Track VT foliage here:

Hot Air Ballon Ride: Now this may be a stretch as manfriend has told me many times that being that high in the air, makes him a little nervous (or a lot nervous). I still reaaaaaaaaaally want to take a hot air ballon ride in New England to see the landscapes and really take in some genuine splendor. To me, it seems so romantic and also very Chipmunk Adventure. "Oh don't you know that I'm off to seeeee the woooorld..."

Boston Duck Tour: I know, I know... I have lived in Massachusetts my entire life and still have not gone on a duck tour? This half bus/half boat takes its riders around Boston and local attractions as a means to show tourists the great city of Boston... suffice to say, I should probably do this before leaving... or else I may live to regret it.

So the list stand like this right now folks with nothing crossed of as yet:

1. Climb Mt. Monadnok
2. Holiday trip to Yankee Candle
3. Portland, ME weekend
4. Touring Newport RI
5. Great Barrington Farmer's Market
6. King Richard's Fair
7. Topsfield Fair
8. New England Sports Games
9.Vermont Foliage
10. Chipmunks Adventure Stylie Hot Air Ballon Ride
11. Duck Tour

I gotta get us into high gear here!
