Finally made it to a Covered Bridge



Note to self: never wear black puffy vest unless you want to appear 15 lbs heavier...

Ever since moving to New England, I have been wanting to go see a covered bridge...and of course, I wanted to go to the one that was shown on Beetlejuice. Well, I didnt exactly make it to that covered bridge (which I did find--it was just a little further away and we werent up for a long drive) but I did find a good one that was just a little less than an hour away from us in New Hampshire. So we called it our late-Fall foliage/ covered bridge tour of New England.

On the way back from the covered bridge, we drove down to Lexington and Concord (where some battles were fought and where the "shot heard 'round the world" took place). I have to admit, we have been to so many historical places and battlegrounds over the years that they all run together...but, alas, we have trekked to them all. While there, we also got a picture of Emerson's house over by Walden Pond--we didnt realize this was all basically the same area as the battleground.

Of course, being Halloween and all, we got some pictures of creepy old cemetaries along the way--and there are plenty of those in New England.
