wonderful video...


there is a tinkham mountain in the town of alexandria, nh. it is a small mountain in the shadow of one of new hampshires larger peaks, cardigan mountain. my gunsmith, ed lander was born close to there. he was taken to massachusetts as a boy, but returned to his roots in the early seventies and is there now, still practicing his trade at 88 years of age.

the abandoned road to tinkham mountain is off washburn road which is a mostly passible dirt road on the way to old ed's shop. I pass it often when up that way. I walked it part way once, but having read the story, decided that I was not yet ready to go all the way to the end, so to speak...anyway, it is remarkable how the area in the video is so like the real place. wonder if it is?

I too had an english setter, who is now gone. his name was princie. he was my friend and I was his.
