Mount Washington Hotel and Resort

Jay and I took a ride up to the White Mountain area of New Hampshire. We were mixing a little bit of business with pleasure and happened upon the Mount Washington Hotel and Resort. We’ve been here many times but have never seen it like this. New fallen snow covered the mountains surrounding the hotel with peak fall foliage in full swing. What an awesome view.

Mount Washington Hotel and Resort

We arrived at the Mount Washington Hotel about an hour ago and Jay is already on the golf course.

Even surrounded by fog this place is lovely. Our REALTOR convention begins tonight and tomorrow night I get sworn in as the 2009 President Elect. I’m pretty excited about that and the fact that I am presenting a session on Blogging and Social Networking. ‘

The next three days will be busy but well worth the time spent. You can never get too much education…never close the book on learning and really that is what this convention is all about.

Leaf Peeper…The time is now

October 6, 2007 By Monika McGillicuddy 14 Comments

The best fall colors will be this coming week so hurry up to New Hampshire’s majestic White Mountains to enjoy some awesome fall foliage.

New Hampshire has long been known for it’s awesome fall colors and trying to gauge just when the right time to go leaf peeping is can be extremely hard. This year we’ve had such a dry summer that I’m afraid our traditionally rich colors may be a little muted. Even muted the red, orange, yellow and green leaves that dot our beautiful country side is a sight to see. Nothing beats a day trip to the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

Here is a neat tool that I found that can help you decide when to head north. We know a few days makes a big difference in the colors you’ll see.
So if you are you a leaf peeper… this is an awesome site for mapping out the “At Peak” times.

Jay and I were up in Bretton Woods NH at the Mount Washington Resort this past week.

It was the New Hampshire Association of REALTORS annual convention and what a perfect spot it was.

We took a few photos and even though the colors were not at peak the mountains of New Hampshire are just breathtaking!

The Mount Washington Hotel was undergoing renovations while we were there and even with all the heavy equipment around, the place is just incredible.

We even had a ghost sighting…on the 3rd floor of course. The convention was great and the ride home was perfect. I hope you enjoy my pictures….can you imagine what it might look like at peak?

Ghost information for those that have asked for it… According to Shadowlands :

The Mount Washington Hotel is Haunted by Princess Caroline, the original owner. She writes on walls.

The Mount Washington Hotel in the Lobby – There’s a little Feral Girl.

The Mount Washington Hotel in the Madison Room – You can Hear Babies Crying.

The Mount Washington Hotel , Room 206 -A Malevolent lady is believed to haunt this room.

I’ve heard that Princess Caroline also haunts the Tower room. Jay and I stayed in the Tower room when Jay was president of the association…we never saw anything unusual.
