Over the 15 yrs. I was performing S&R on Monadnock, except for one, I never begrudged having to rescue a senior. The one was only because he complained about how he was being rescued and insulted us throughout the hours long litter carry; as I think he expected a gold-plated helicopter. I tend...

I had read this in the Digger last week. Jill just took a job with VT Fish & Wildlife and is no longer working for NHF&G.

We enjoyed the Beede Spur Rail Trail up in Newport VT yesterday, and at one point I wondered if a few of the people who appeared to have been long-time walkers on the trail, were happy to see all the new riders zipping along their trail. There was a project at Rhododendron State Park back in the...

I was hoping the rails would stay in place on this project, but the article does not specify. Earlier stories had put that as a possibility although difficult in many sections. Would be nice to ride a bike to Portland some day from mid- northern NH, would be nice to ride a train also.

Having been on the planning team for the first festival and worked at and managed the impacts of nearly every subsequent festival including writing the bulk of the special use permits; glad I don't have to deal with it anymore. The amount of drug busts and DUI arrests, trash and vandalism to...

Yeah that's weird. Sounds like rabies but that far into the woods and not near a neighborhood? At the same time most of us in NH are not very familiar with martin behavior to have any idea what was going on. You really did get some shaman time- good livin.

The Discovery Room. This was an interesting area that held more surprises than we expected, and it can be visited without paying to enter the museum area if you are really short on time. It was a cool place and method for the curators to display items in groups that are related to astronomy...

Back on Topic.... Thanks for the heads up on this peakbagger. Went yesterday and were quite impressed by the quality of the effort towards interpreting the collections. Having been involved in interpretive display development and a lifetime of visiting parks and museums, I was really impressed...

There was a local story in the Caledonian Record about this yesterday. Apparently Littleton Courthouse is one of 2 Federal courthouses in this state (as well as serving as a local courthouse). They set up an outdoor federal "bench" for a day in Littleton. Since the charges were being processed...

Before the bank would close on my place in Gorham, they wanted the seasonal water line buried, and the water system freeze proof (dug well). My wife and I had to show up at the property one weekend and we hand dug to the goal of 4ft for what I remember to be at least 60' run between the well and...

My wife had to work at Barry Camp (York Pond Rd) on Thursday, and all her colleagues in the Concord office on Wednesday were freaking out and telling her about all the difficulty she was going to have with traffic and check points; In fact, another colleague told her they had cancelled a meeting...

Thanks peakbagger, admittedly I have not delved into the actual USFS proposal details, and probably won't since it cuts into time outside. There is typically a group behind such recreational development proposals, and I assumed GBA would have been the one being approached to help implement the...

They were in Bethlehem a few years ago off Trudeau Road and were somewhat welcomed by us locals, no big impact. The holiday tourist crowd has a much worse impact, unless you own a business that benefits. I wonder if the USFS will activate their Incident Response Team to deal with the negative...

They also build the humus layer to retain and absorb moisture, actually one of the main reasons for the creation of the WMNF. I interact with a lot of bears in my life, and always wonder what such a big mammal can be gathering in the forest to keep its big butt going. I have come to observe that...

I think you are missing the entire value of mature forests, it is much broader than the limited perspective you are presenting. I'm glad the forest has more meaning to me than the value for human beings. I don't see the value to creating useless beech hells. It's funny how the foresters plans...

All I can say is Thank You! In all my years why have I never discovered this stuff, life may be different now. I don't like smearing stuff on my skin, this is exactly what type of application I have always sought. Current testing very effective.

The apple and cherry trees blossomed heading into this past weekend here, so at one point yesterday morning I wasn't sure if it was a bunch of seeds parachuting around, but then it was obviously snow. This morning heading up into Bethlehem Village and at our house, there was a 1/2 mile of heavy...

There was an unknown medical situation emerging, assuming this was not your child, it was not your choice at this point to make medical decisions for the child; so best to get medical care response in motion.

Sunday River Brewing was such a treat when it first opened and I never drove past without stopping. It was sad a number of years ago when I found it transformed to be just another mediocre brewpub, and stopped going after a full pint was spilled by a server on my father-in-law, with no apology...
