Rob Dunn and Kristy Stevens of Long Island, New York, have their picture taken Feb. 14 under a Valentine’s Day kissing booth in Hebron. Dunn and Stevens hired Alex Therriault, right, of Ultimate Dog Sledding Experience of Oxford to give them a two-hour tour that took them along an old railroad bed near The Storekeepers, a shop at 911 Station Road in Hebron, where the booth stands. “This has been two years in the making,” says Dunn, who had planned the trip two years ago but had to cancel because of a lack of snow. “We thought it would be fun for Valentine’s Day.” Therriault says the kissing booth is an idea he had for couples celebrating the holiday.
