37. Halibut Point State Park and The Crane Estate MA
This week we explore Rockport, Massachusetts including Bear Skin Neck and Halibut Point State Park. We also talk about Castle Hill at the Crane Estate in Ipswich.
Our first spot was to check out the quarry, the hiking path, and the rocks on the bold ocean facing the Atlantic Ocean. Halibut Point State Park has some interesting history, the quarry business was run from the mid 1800s until the great depression in 1929. Back then they didnt have the technology that is used to harvest granite now. Mike talks about the history. The trails are fun and the views are incredible!
For lunch we went to a delicious lunch at Fresco's Seaside which was located just outside of the Bear Skin Neck area of Rockport. The food was awesome and this place had the classic New England vibes.
The Crane Estates is another incredible place in Ipswich, Massachusetts. This place is jaw-dropping. We discuss a wedding we went to this year, and the beautiful grounds.
As always, thanks for listening and keep exploring New England one trail at a time!
