    We had rain predicted for one day earlier this week. I was hoping for a downpour since our last rain was back in April. But it was so dry that most of it evaporated before we saw it. We barely had enough to dampen the ground.
    It's so nice to see the green. Thank you for all this beauty! 💜

    IN the days before GPS, we took a map out to something called "Unknown Pond" in the middle of nowhere, Vermont, and it was all logging roads, but we never were able to locate the pond, which is probably why it was named that way.

    If you are going to go do Quebec, you will need to bring someone to translate with you. You won't be able to get by without someone who speaks French. If you want to do Canadian logging roads, consider New Brunswick or Northern Ontario. Both you can get by with just English, aren't too far from you, and are extensive logging areas (New Brunswick is basically North North Maine).
    And gas will be the equivalent of 4.50 USD / gal or more everywhere btw.

    About 10 years ago my friend and I were up there in the summer. We drove my Saturn Station wagon on those logging roads looking for moose. It was fun to drive until we came across 2 bull moose stairing at each other. We stopped for a while...until one moved off.

    central Indiana has the worst roads. the temp averages around 32 degrees in winter so lots of freezing and thawing. Iowa has good roads, rarely see a pothole cuz it just gets cold here and stays cold! I have blown 2 tires in Indianapolis due to potholes.

    The low grade is around 3.49 here similar to what you just paid however I noticed on the pump premium it was 4.17 and it's 4.69 over here... That's interesting how the ratio is different in New Hampshire not that high for the premium.

    In Germany I pay 7.66$ per gallon. Or ~1.80€ (2$) per litre for normal gas (not diesel). Good prices you have, makes a big truck like you have more affordable!

    • @patrickwelten155

      Here in the Netherlands it's already above 2 euro per litre (so above 8,5 dollar per gallon). So I agree that you have nice prices.

    Another reason New Hampshire state roads are so good is they build them right in the first place. I live in CT and was in the trucking business for 40 years before retiring so I know roads in the Northeast. When you put a proper base down like they do in New Hampshire the roads last. Down here and in MA they never put proper base down so the roads go to hell in no time. Like any construction project you build a proper foundation and the rest of the project lasts a long time. Just FYI post10…..

    Have you ever been to Pittsburgh New Hampshire I only ask because you mentioned the Canadian border One year in the late '90s that's what we had to go to get snow there was no snow anywhere around until we got up that far and that's when we went snowmobiling The lakes up there are huge beautiful and they were frozen solid.

    I'm noticing I'm guessing your new tires make quite a bit of road noise on the pavement. it seems worse on cooler wet days and not so bad on warner days? Or is more of a speed related thing?

    Canada side of that road is ultra boring. Flat and nothing for miles and miles. That Rt3 stretch is/was one of my favorite roads to hit 130mph on the R1 motorcycle. Dangerous but fun. The 4th lake(pond really) is just a short easy hike. Pretty with lots of lily pads. I didn't get up there this year but usually camp/hike there at least once. per summer. LaPerles IGA in Colebrook always has good priced lobster. I buy a bunch and a bunch of corn and share with friends the camp fire cooked feast. Sad I didn't go there this year. Rained every weekend anyway...2023 was not a good year for outdoor stuff.
