Summer-End-New Hampshire-Bob Davis Podcast 1111

Summer End New Hampshire

Summer end in New Hampshire. The summer of ’23 has been a great one for me. Time to take stock and prepare to head southwest. Details in Summer-End-New Hampshire-Bob Davis Podcast 1111.

Great Summer

Above all this has been a great summer.

For one thing nomads can move.

Avoided Heat

Therefore I’ve been able to avoid most of the heat.

In fact sometimes Ive been downright cold.

Places

On the other hand I have quite enjoyed all the places I’ve seen and stayed this summer.

Spring

As I have said before I left Arizona in late March.

And spent most of the spring in the shores of a cool Wisconsin lake.

Eventually it was time for travel.

Summer

Firstly heading across a sea of green fields on back roads. My podcast about that experience is here.

Secondly heading north through Pennsylvania to the great New York State. Click here for that podcast.

Finally on to Vermont and New Hampshire.

Back Roads Vibe

All in all my love of movement and back roads has been renewed.

While this may be true I have been making an effort to stay long enough here and there.

Learning

Accordingly learning about a place rather than just driving through.

Detail

Therefore in Summer-End-New Hampshire-Bob Davis Podcast 1111 there’s detail about some of the places I’ve been…

Rich Greens

Especially the rich greens of this part of the country.

History

And the history.

Not All One Thing

All things considered we have been conditioned to believe that the United States is all one thing.

Because every town has the same stores and fast food joints.

But this is really not the case.

Nomad Why’s

Due to my travels it’s become clear there’s still a lot of diversity in different places.

Accordingly this is a big reason I am a nomad.

So many places.

So little time.

Heading West Again Soon

To that end it will soon be time to head west again.

Altogether on the back roads.

Bay-State-Ocean-State-Bob Davis Podcast 1010

Bay State Ocean State

My friend Jack Casey joins the Bob Davis Podcast in Bay State Ocean State. Last in the series of podcasts about New England Travel in Bay-State-Ocean-State-Bob Davis Podcast 1010.

Loving New England

Most importantly I am surprised at how much I like New England.

From New York To Maine

Two Friends Get Together To Podcast

Consequently when I got together with friends in Massachusetts it’s natural we’d do a podcast.

Go Way Back

Firstly Jack and I go way back in the radio business.

First Rule Of Fight Club…

Secondly we don’t do what every other radio person does when they’re on a podcast.

We Don’t Talk About Fight Club

Talk about radio!

Growing Up In New England

To clarify Casey grew up in Rural Upstate New York and has spent many years living and working all over New England.

History And Telling Stories

As a result he knows his New England history and tells some great stories about growing up and working in some of the most storied places in the United States, let alone New England.

Industrial Revolution Tour In Reverse

As you know I’ve been heading east traveling across the areas most effected by the march of the Industrial Revolution, which began in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.

Ocean State

After that we’re finally here in the Ocean State, where it all started.

Not All A Party

On the other hand the history of this region isn’t all balloons and birthday cake.

Dark History

That is to say there’s some terrible history in Rhode Island they’re trying to work through these days.

We’ll explain in Bay-State-Ocean-State-Bob Davis Podcast 1010.

And The Clams, Lobster and Ice Cream

Even more I am here to tell you the stories about the local full bellied clams, roadside Lobster and Ice Cream are all true.

Ate A Lot

Certainly I ate a lot during my visit. Foods I have not been eating since I’ve been on the protein diet.

Who Can Resist?

But who can resist baked beans and Italian sausage, a local staple. Lobster. Clams and Fries. Blueberry Pancakes and gallons of coffee.

Starving Myself Now

Finally now I am back on the road and starving myself!

History Is Everywhere

To sum up and in all seriousness. The history here really is everywhere.

Just driving through small towns becomes a huge education.

Going Back To The 1600’s

In conclusion it’s just hard to believe people settled out here in the mid to late 1600’s.

Factories and Mills In The Late 1700’s

Mills and factories started producing goods in the mid to late seventeen hundreds and early eighteen hundreds.

Twentieth Century Powerhouse

Furthermore by the twentieth century this part of the country was hitting on all eight cylinders, making all kinds of products for the world.

Family Stories

Jack’s got some family stories about working in the mills and the pride of work and place that was so important in this part of the country.
