Outside Magazine, Spot On!

Outside Magazine just came out with its, “Where to Live Now” issue. Eighteen places that are, “hip, smart & packed with adventure. Two I happen to be very close to, in fact I am in one as I write. The magazines take on Portland Maine is very interesting and very factual. It is an actual working waterfront city and yet has a sophisticated feel. It is a start up city for businesses and the median age is 36. Better yet, even with NY plates on my jeep I get high fives for the kayaks. Still keeping the Yanks cap in the room.

The big treat for me is seeing Littleton NH listed. I have been going there for years to visit old college buddy and CEO of the Mt. Washington Hotel (as well as one of the owners of Bretton Woods and Cog Railway) Wayne Presby. Wayne his wonderful wife Susan and gorgeous daughter Abby have hosted us like royalty at their amazing house, complete with trout pond. The man has spent more on my wine education than was spent on my college studies. I guess I really didn’t need Outside to convince me about Littleton. Still they were, “spot on”!
