The Manor on Golden Pond
Tourism - New England

The Manor is a beautiful Victorian house overlooking Squam Lake in Holderness, NH, featuring several bedroom suites of varying decor and price ranges. Some include a beautifully decorated ornamental wood burning fireplace and others an insuite jacuzzi. Among the many activities offered at the Manor are tennis, badminton, a pool, and boating on Squam Lake in addition to the acres of hiking trails. The rooms are spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Guests are pampered with room service, a beautiful english breakfast in the breakfast room, and good night snacks placed on lush pillows. Some rooms have walk out balconies that offer breathtaking views of Golden Pond and beyond. The nearby town of Meredith is a charming shopping destination. Makes for a very refreshing drive and weekend.

The New PS2 Slim
Entertainment

In the competitive world of gaming today, the Play Station 2 Slim is an affordable, sleek option to keep your need for playing satisfied.
To get started you will need the console (about $120), optional wireless controllers (about $40 for a set of 2), optional memory cards to save your success stories (about $30 for 2), and of course, your favorite games (about $20 each). The slim playstation console costs the same as the regular playstation 2 but is only the size of a notebook. The unit comes with a wired controller which will not work for anyone having a home theater system. Wireless controllers have ranges of 30-50 feet and very long battery life. They also come with features such as "rumble" to enhance your gaming experience.
Some games do not allow you to access the more advanced levels unless you have successfully completed the basic levels, which is where memory cards come in. Like the original play station, the PS2 Slim is easy to setup, easy on your wallet and can provide endless hours of fun.
