A Fishless Week in Lovell Report
Thanks for reading this Fishless Week in Lovell report. Susan and I are once again in Maine. And sadly, blueberry season here is finished. I found a few hangers-on this week, but they were old and mostly tasteless.

Late Saturday afternoon saw me take my last attempt to catch a striper from Winthrop Beach. I did not get a bite, but did witness a most spectacular sunset.
It was looking good…
…and then I got this.
On our way back to Lovell on Monday, we went out of our way to visit the Sunapee Craft Fair, the 90th one. We got there about ten AM and the lot was already close to full, and that was with a cold rain and 61-degree temperature. It was so worth it! AMAZING work there of all kinds. We fairly ran through, just checking out what we found most interesting, and we were still there more than four hours. If you ever get the chance to go, jump on it!
Rain continued sporadically on Tuesday. The library in Lovell has a bargain basement for previously loved books. Since we were both in need, we spent some time down there and bought some. There were other errands, too.
Reading was big on Wednesday. It sure is a luxury to sit around most of a day with a good book or two.
We get a nice sunset across Kezar Lake sometimes, too.
Thursday we went on a New Hampshire waterfall sampler, visiting four different falls. We capped a fairly amazing day with an ice cream at Trail’s End in North Conway. Yeah, we’ll be doing that again!
A wee bit of Jackson Falls.
And a wee bit more.
The obligatory covered bridge shot. Sorry, leaves aren’t changing color yet.
On the way to Glen Ellis Falls.
And the main attraction, Glen Ellis Falls.
The trail work was outstanding.
On the way to the Crystal Cascade.
Crystal Cascade.
Thompson Falls.
And the obligatory selfie.
We needed groceries and spent Friday morning at the grocer’s and visiting farm stands. The afternoon saw us out on the lake, where I went fishless, utterly. Not a decent bite was had. In the evening we visited the Brick Church Performing Arts Center, where Alex Roche gave a splendid classical guitar performance. I need to get some of that music!
And while I stayed busy, I only fished for a few hours. No surprise we have a Fishless Week in Lovell Report. Thanks for reading!
Every day is a blessing. Don’t waste it- Go fishing! Go paddling! Take a walk! Stay active!
