Joan - one of my most vivid memories of Concord is the old state prison.  Those slabs of granite that they called walls were ominous at best.  LOL  Is it still around or did they build a new one?

Joan, you are absolutely brilliant with your "stuff".  As a potential buyer, I would LOVE to see this.  As soon as I figure out links and photos that aren't huge, I'm copying (with your written permission, of course).  This really is great, Joan!

Joan,
How clever.  Ok, I must learn to work with the Google maps.  Is it difficult?

Joan~You did such a wonderful job on your presentation. I tried to figure out Google Maps last night and had to shut the computer down. You have put this together with such simplicity.

Joan - Walking Tours should be on everyone's list of to do before you buy lists when moving to a new town. What a great way to learn about the location you are thinking of living in.

Laurie...it's all available for free on Google Maps. Just set up a Google account(free). It is a bit of a learning curve....but I know YOU CAN DO IT

Thanks Ginger...after I get this google stuff down to a science I think I'll use it for my picture tours too!

Cynthia....I did find it frustrating but I think I'm getting it. It does have a bit of a learning curve and I haven't figured out some of the un-doing of stuff....but it's very satisfying!

Julie...I had to shut it down several times before I could go in and finish!LOL
Posted by Joan Mirantz- Concord New Hampshire Realtor (Keeler Family Realtors) about 1 year ago
Thanks Carole...I think I'm going to try doing it with a driving tour too!

WoW, Joan!  You've got this google map thing nailed right down.   Fantasitic map and I loved clicking on each little marker and seeing the write-up and pictures of the beautiful buildings.

That's one walking tour I would absolutely love to take....

Joan - that old granite building always gave me chills!  LOL  When I had clients to see and those huge steel doors closed behind me I almost got sick each time.  It's a very eerie place.

Carol..the State Hospital was worse! But it's been totally re-furbished into State offices!
