I know Claremont. We used to live in a little town called Peterborough. You may be familiar with it from the play Our Town, from what I understand it was the model for Grover's Corners. It is about 20 minutes east of Keene. I actually graduated from Keene State College.

It is nice up there. I may move back someday.

Beautiful country, especially this time of year. My wife isn't crazy about the winters, so I'd like to close on property before winter comes and she changes her mind again!

We're only about 30 minutes due south of Keene where we are now. Peterborough is great. I used to work for Eastern Mountain Sports, and spent time at their HQ in P'boro. I was through there last time I climbed Monadnock.

I'd never explored the Connecticut River part of New Hampshire though, never made it north of Keene/Brattleboro on the river. Poked around the whole Lake Sunapee region a few weeks ago, and couldn't get over how beautiful it was. I think if PJ had filmed in the States, he could have done a lot worse than this region for filming. Very "Tolkienesque."

You will be sorry the first time you want to go to the beach in January. Why not do the snowbird thing?
