Thanks to our good friend Jon, we knew that if we could just get the car packed, delicious bagel sandwiches would be within our reach! Hunter of course was hungry, so he and I headed down to get a quick bite before we hit the road. Hunter met one of the hotel employees named Louisa (who he later would also… Read more »
The best part about the Best Western in Keene is that we were able to park our car right behind our room with a sliding door, so loading the car was a breeze!

After a good night’s sleep at the Aloft hotel in Winchester, we packed up the car yet again and set out on our day.
