We returned to the Topic Of The Town restaurant for breakfast and then headed off to Fryeburg. I passed an old abandoned stone church and just had to have a picture since I love stone buildings. Shortly thereafter we crossed the Ammonoosuc River and I stopped for a picture. Able, a local resident who was crossing the bridge on his daily walk, indicated that I should take a picture of him which I did. We chatted for a few minutes during which I found out that the secret to good health is vegetables. That is another shot of the Ammonoosuc River a little further down the road. Later in the morning we passed through Crawford's Notch. It is a narrow cut through the White Mountains with steep ridges on both sides. It was a welcome climb-reducing route through the mountains for us leg weary riders. Lunch was in the parking lot of the Attitash Ski Hill where people were riding mountain bikes downhill, using the water slide and sledding down a concrete ramp. Later in the day we stopped at the gas station behind the New Hampshire sign for refreshments. Having missed the New Hampshire sign on the way in, we captured the moment on the way out. Typical of eastern riding the humidity had made the day hot and sweaty for all of us and the refreshments helped on the last 3 miles to our destination.
