ReplyDeleteThanks! Yeah these represent a lot of fun adventures. A few months ago we were wandering through a mineshaft and we came around a bend and two large porcupines were right there! I jumped like a fool but my friends knew they were calm animals, and we ended up getting some pictures of them :)
DeleteI can get you in a mine near Gorham if you haven’t explored those yet shoot me a message ngoodwin555@gmail obviously It’s best I don’t publicly post it. Don’t need anyone falling down a mine shaft ;)
ReplyDeleteI sent you a message, thanks!
DeleteI'd love the locations of these mines if your willing to share.
ReplyDeleteDavid Rondinone Stevens High '60?
ReplyDeleteYou actually must remember my father, that is the Dave Rondinone you are thinking of :). Did you go to school with him?
DeleteThese places are amazing! I am from New York and recently moved to New Hampshire. I used to go spelunking all the time for fun, unfortunately I'm not having as much luck finding caves or mines as I was in New York. I would love to have some of these locations if you are willing to share them!
