A few weeks ago, I made the journey up north to attend a conference at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. The campus itself was beautiful and the town of Hanover was so picturesque. I spent a lot of time at the Hanover Inn, which is one of the most charming hotels I have ever seen. The decor was both modern and homey and I loved it!

While I was attending sessions and events most of time, I did manage to do a little bit of exploring and picture taking along the way. The Dartmouth campus is situated along the Connecticut River and has tons of running trails. I went on several early morning runs where I got some of the best pictures! But, lets be real, my true motivation was to be able to utter the sentence, "I ran to Vermont this morning." So Vermont is less than a mile away? Who's counting?

*Tip: If you ever happen to be in the Hanover area, The Dirt Cowboy Cafe has coffee that rivals any Starbucks drink out there. It's a must do. Also, visit Salt Hill Pub for karaoke, Murphy's on the Green for dinner and drinks, and Morano Gelato for desert.
