Me and my ‘20 part II
The last two days based out of Portsmouth have been spectacular!! The weather has cooperated nicely and every day has been cool and crisp. The Mid Engine behaves like no other Corvette I’ve ever driven and I’ve driven a lot.
Having that V8 behind the driver allows the car a perfect balance. The acceleration is “Now” instantaneous and catapults the car in a forward direction from literally any traveling speed! Forget the “Z” Mode or holding the down shift level while cruising, that combination causes serious neck injuries!! Not really! But you catch my drift…no pun!!!
These photos are of those last two days. Today is a pit stop day! Heading back into Boston to meet up with Michael Grande; aka Corvette Mike New England. A good ole Italian meal at his favorite place in E. Boston. Rino’s Place. Tomorrow dinner with high school buddy Steve Luongo and then off to visit more countryside in Vermont.
The car is approaching 500 miles. Supposedly the factory governor becomes eliminated and a new source of energy and power breathes through the exhaust of the ferocious V8 mid engine!
Historic Boston. Birth place of Patriots and American history!!
This is my midnight ride of Paul Revere!
- How much cash has gone through that register over the years?
- An original scale from decades ago in the Old Country Store.
- Tried to find the oldest grave stone.
- The leaves are just starting to change. In two weeks it will be picture perfect! And thousands of photos will be taken!
- On the side of the road on route 25 I had to stop and take these photos.
- I found this old cemetery and I was enthralled. So I grabbed a couple photos to set the scene for our up coming Halloween holiday! People were there walking their dogs and riding their bikes. I visited with a few!!
- Pan seared Haddock. Can’t find that in California. Yum!! New England food is quite amazing!
- The local elite showing off their eternal status as an aristocrat. My headstone is bigger than yours!!
- The book I received as a gift of all the old general stores in New England. My travel guide!!
- Guardian of the Sea!
- Cute ole gas station in Meredith Bay. Part of Lake Winnepesaukee!!
- 30 plus miles of shear excitement. From Conway NH to Lincoln. I guess it’s the equivalent of Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles!
- Portsmouth harbor.
