Interesting read.
Technically, I don't need a modem. Yet the Xfifnity installer says I am required to have a cable modem even though there is an ONT in a box at the corner of the street. The...

I snitched on a few of my McMansion neighbors. Nothing became of it. Maybe law enforcement should do their job. Better yet, go after the landscapers instead of the landowners. Oh, wait! Some of the...

I had a scout for years until I could no longer pass inspection due to rust. I still say it's the best SUV made! A close second was the Bronco II until that sadly rotted.

Public Beaches
Opechee Park in Laconia has two beaches on Opechee, both destroyed by the geese. Beaches are close due to how fecal bacteria counts. Time to kill the geese by killing the eggs!

Appears to be 3 occupants in a boat taking in water. All are rescued and OK.
Someone took a murky picture of the boat on FB. Looks like a small BR.

Gunstock road course
It's probably a lot of fun for flatlanders. The course was very tame. I did it after hours on my allroad. For a real adventure, there is a 4X4 park in Ossipee.

They have the latest inverter A/Cs at competitive prices. They will match the big box stores. When I brought my old unit to the store, they did not charge for disposal.

Check your local dump.
Some towns have good working A/C ready to take away. Hit or miss as to their condition. I had pretty good luck. Just make sure you clean the appliance.
