The rain stopped overnight, for the most part. We continued south on US1 along the New Hampshire coast with our view impaired with low clouds and fog. When we got to the Seabrook area, we hopped on I95 south and then I495 west to skirt the Boston area. We then proceeded west on SR2, then picking up US202 south and a couple other roads to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
The Hall of Fame was very interesting especially the displays about the history of the game and how the rules changed over the years. The museum primarily addresses college and professional men and women, but also touches on high school and international/Olympic basketball. We were especially interested in this year's inductee, John Stockton of Spokane. He played at Gonzaga Prep High School, Gonzaga University, and 17 years with the Utah Jazz where he holds the NBA record for assists and steals. He and Michael Jordan were inducted together.
The weather improved greatly during the day. It was sunny and 70 when we finished the museum. We located a campground to spend the near Brimfield, about 25 miles to the east on US20. It advertised wifi, but he signal where we set up camp is too weak. I need to check that out before selecting camp sites in the future.
New England has some of the most interesting and beautiful architecture. We passed several very large brick buildings in some towns that were once factories. Some still are, and others are now serving other purposes. Some farm houses are interesting. You can see where the main structure has been added on to several times and is now connected to a barn.
