Headed up to Crawford Notch to try and take some photos but it was packed. No place to park. Have never seen it this busy. We did manage to find a parking spot just down the road so we could get a picture of the falls. It was cold and windy. We should have packed hats and gloves. But not to worry there is an Eddie Bauer outlet nearby

Then we headed to Jackson in search of pumpkin people

The Spice Girls won first prize.  The pumpkin people below were all on display in Jackson at the Snowflake Inn

Stopped for gas and spotted this old pump. Michael’s grandfather used to work for Mobile Oil.  If you look closely looks like highest it could register is $9.99.  I remember when $3.00 used to fill the gas tank

Spotted this old Coke machine and had to take a photo. We used to have one of these in the store

Then we headed back to the Notchland Inn.  Right across from the Inn is the Saco River.  A little chilly for a picnic today

My parents used to have a small grocery store that had a coke machine very similar to this. It brought back lots of good memories. I used to like filling it with soda in the summer time since the cold water felt so nice. Better than in the winter time
