New Hampshire and Maine have mountains.....granted, nothing like the Rockies or Cascades, but they definitely have mountains. NH has one of the more famous mountains, especially for weather geeks: Mt Washington.
I have. And I remember the clerk at the gas station asking me if I wanted a "sack" instead of a bag. Unhinged and truly despicable behavior. Still sends chills down my spine just thinking about it.
Have you ever been? A very extensive park system, puts other cities to shame. One of the cleanest cities in America. One of the friendliest cities as well. Not to mention it's so much easier to get in and see a doctor than other areas
I wouldn't live there because I need mountains, but people who do live there say it's the best place they've ever lived.
