If you ever find yourself in New Hampshire, you should check it out!

Taken in Bellows Fall, Vermont overlooking the Fall Mountain in North Walpole, New Hampshire across the Connecticut River. This area always catches my eyes in the Fall season because of the intense colorful leaves on the trees and also how they reflect on the river.
