CONWAY — In the Mount Washington Valley, three dates recognize the start of the summer season: Memorial Day, the “unofficial” start to summer; June 21, the actual start of the Summer Solstice; and the Fourth of July, the “official” start to summer in our valley.
By July Fourth, school is out for all New England states; families are settling into summer routines, and have the bandwidth to pack the car with gear, luggage, and snacks; the weather starts to consistently provide warm, sunny days; and this year specifically, the Canadian border opened up after a multi-year closure.
