Two years ago we spent the 4th of July at Lake Winnepisaukee. Last year we spent it on Long Lake in Maine. This year, back to Lake Winnepisaukee. We didn’t have a specific beach in mind, but we discovered Carry Beach in Wolfeboro.

We got there before noon and it was wonderfully quiet with only a few people. The water was cool but not too cold, and it was crystal clear. There was even shade on the beach.

As the afternoon wore on it filled up quite a bit, but it never got obnoxious. I would definitely go back there again. I can assume that it will never be as crazy as that other beach. The one in Laconia.

After our beach visit we took the long way home and drove all the way around the lake. Once we got home we watched Monty Python’s The Holy Grail. My step son has declared it the best movie ever. I generally agree.
