Wish I could be as optimistic as you are. If the snow is completely gone from the Gilford hills by mid-April, it will be a miracle.

Do you think we've gotten spoiled this summer??? The weather has been so fantastic for the outdoors, it's something of a shock to have to close windows to keep from getting flooded.

Yeah, but don't be too nasty. . .

Or your server will insult you in front of the other patrons, grab a few beers, slide out the back door, and become an international folk hero.

Heads Up Barbers on Union Ave, Laconia

I've been going to Heads Up for about 6 years and highly recommend them. The shop is run by two older women but the clientele is almost all men. They are sort of half way between a regular barbershop...
