The Old Red Schoolhouse in Danville dates from 1780 and is one of the many one room schoolhouses common in late colonial times.
This was the first school in the town of Danville. There is another one room schoolhouse in Danville The Little Red Schoolhouse located on Main Street.
While doing some business in Wilmington we decided to stop for a late breakfast. The As Good As It Gets Cafe was jam packed so we thought it would be a nice choice and Yelp had it highly rated.
I had hash and home fries with eggs.
It was very disappointing; the home fries were soggy and the hash was from a can. The side of bacon was adequate but the toast was also very soggy.
Rita had an omelet which was good but her croissant was truly awful.
If you do come here stick to the omelets and lunch paninis.
This is Alex and I’m writing my first post for our family’s website. let me tell you this was worth it. I am 10 years old and i want to tell you about my summer camp with Adventurelore.
It all started off as a get together at the Adventurelore headquarters. We shared our interests in a game and then we headed off onto the bus. We set up camp after a beautiful trip on the bus. When we arrived it was all just woods but we filled it up with tents.
On the first day it was raining so we hiked trough a long dark tunnel to a waterfall, we splashed and had a great time at the waterfall but it was very cold.
We went back to camp and had hamburgers for dinner cooked on a grill.
On day two after eating disgusting pancakes (Yuck) we headed to the mountains for a hike. The hike was with a group of older kids and we hiked up Artist’s Bluff and saw where The Old Man of the Mountain used to be before it collapsed.
After the hike we went canoeing and kayaking.
When we returned to camp we had the Adventurelore olympics.
For dinner we had Tacos which was my favorite meal!! I loved the sriracha.
The next day we went on a big canoe race and some of the kids jumped off a bridge. I did not jump but maybe next year.
I went on scary rides over and over again. This was my favorite ride it was called The Half Pipe.
The lazy River was fun a kid stole my floaty so I had to swim after him.
After the waterpark we stopped at a school where we played capture the flag with a beautiful sunset in the background of the field. We ate pizza and went back to camp. The last day we just went into town and bought some gifts and snacks.
The trip was great fun and if you are ready for adventure than Adventurelore is the place for you.
Here I am relaxing watching TV after the trip with the “little hands” I bought at the gift shop.
Milestone markers were carved blocks of granite with distances to key locations inscribed into the surface. This is the site of the marker in what was once part of Chester, New Hampshire but is now in Hooksett.
Pictured below is an example of what the marker may have looked like.
