New Hampshire (NH) is one of the states in the extreme Northeast Region of the United States of American commonly known as New England. New Hampshire .. located between Maine on the north and Massachusetts on the south .. is a relatively small state being 46th out of the 50 United States in terms of area.
New Hampshire has a very small section of coastline (where land meets water) or seacoast. The NH seacoast on the Atlantic Ocean is approximately 18-miles (30 Km) in length.
The photos below were taken as Patti and I drove north along the Atlantic Seacoast on Highway 1A between Hampton Beach and Rye.
To put it mildly! .. in comparison with the sandy beach of Hampton Beach .. this particular section of the NH seacoast would be considered 'somewhat barren, rocky and very rugged'.
If you look very closely at the two photos above and at the two photos below .. you can see that on the left side of each photo .. there are homes facing the Atlantic Ocean.
"Homes Captain? Did you just write homes facing the ocean?"
"You are calling these huge MANSIONS mere homes?"
Below is the above home as viewed from a distance .. you can see how these 'homes' overlook the rocky seacoast.
Patti sat in Black Beauty as I snapped photos!
Homes? How about a French Chateau !
What did Marie Antoinette say? .. "Let the peasants who are hungry eat cake!"
I have been to the French countryside and these Chateaux (the plural of the singular Chateau) match many that I saw in France!
Evidently .. and I am assuming this .. we were in an area called .. Little Boar's Head .. and the sign below meant .. French Poodles not mere dogs! .. giggle .. giggle .. giggle ..
A 'rhetorical question' is a question that does not require and answer nor a response.
Patti asked me the following 'rhetorical question' ..
"Do you think that these homes are summer homes?"
I will close wondering what their permanent homes look like!
Smiles .. Patti and Cap ..

I love that coastline and the mansions that line it. You took me back about five years with your photos. I have similar ones of when I was where you are. I must go back and look at your pictures again. Thanks, Cap and Patti for a beautiful ride along the Atlantic Ocean.
