I've changed the title of this blog after moving back to Western Mass. The move has taken me from the [former] Endicott Hotel in Concord, NH to the [former] Chesterfield Hotel in Chesterfield, MA. Both are around 100 years old and in need of repair but the environment surrounding each is quite different. Topics will remain hyperlocal.

Close Call For Nativity Display
Gusty winds brought down the Christmas Tree in front of the Concord, NH State House today somewhere between noon and 1 PM, narrowly missing the Nativity display. Luck, or divine intervention? I guess I'll leave that up to you.
The gusty winds we've been experiencing the past day or so were strong enough to snap the big pine tree off at the base.
This could be just the start of a stormy start to the week as the National Weather Service puts out this alert:
"[...]THIS STORM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE THE FIRST MAJOR WINTER STORM OF
THE SEASON FOR MUCH OF THE REGION. SNOW WILL SPREAD FROM SOUTHWEST
TO NORTHEAST SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH SNOW LASTING INTO TUESDAY AT MANY
LOCATIONS. SINCE THE END OF THIS EVENT IS STILL SEVERAL DAYS
AWAY...SOME UNCERTAINTY STILL EXISTS IN SNOWFALL TOTALS.
HOWEVER...THIS STORM DOES HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE GREATER
THAN A FOOT OF SNOW ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION.[...]"
I don't know about you, but I'll be taking advantage of the new parking garage next door and parking under cover for the next few days.
