It can be 10 degrees (F) colder up there, does that not make a difference? Anyway, not trying to defend road construction in MA, I like to joke that the reason the roads are so terrible is because some politician’s brother owns a road construction company

Both can happen simultaneously.
Well, it can in a functional government.

I think of this when Europeans on Reddit make blanket statements about the US without recognizing places like Massachusetts exist. Heaven forbid any of us live anywhere but Florida and Alabama.

MA roads are Alabama bad though.
And yeah, mass transit is great. Sadly, nobody on Beacon Hill wants it.

That’s kind of sad. We’re in one of the smallest states in the country. It takes like 2.5 hours to get from one part of the state to the other. It’s not hard to get here.

I believe Vision Associates in Northampton has the machine. I do not know about the insurance part.

Probably the idiots in charge? We all know the T is run by incompetent fools, but that doesn’t make mass transit a bad thing to invest in bc once you have some mass firings you’ve got the problem fixed. Either way their always expensive, that’s why the roads are bad EVERYWHERE. Every state complains about the roads because even where it’s cheap it’s still to expensive

At this point, I just assume MBTA is just supposed to teach us a moral. No way is it supposed to be a dependable transportation.

This map is amazing to my early 90's kid self who'd try some way to make a board game out of this.

If we spend money fixing roads and the MBTA then we won’t have so much money though

They are super friendly, there is a bar downstairs that is open daily. You can call or go in to check it all out

What a great recommendation. This checks their boxes extremely well.
Username does NOT check out, in this case!

Yup. If you are going to have a wedding of that size on a tight budget a Legion/Elks/K of C hall/lodge is a great way to go. It won't be fancy but the beer will be cold.

I believe you. I keep losing doctors too. I have masshealth and it has a lot of turn over true. Amherst is probably the best town in terms of best paid teachers. I see construction workers all the time here.

Ok, hear me out... Canton has an American Legion and it is exactly what you're looking for. It's not very new or updated but it does the trick. There is a full bar there and they will provide a bartender as well. You can bring your own food or catered from anywhere you like. It costs like $250 to rent for a day.
Funny thing is, it's located on the grounds of Canton High School. Congratulations
Edit: it might even be less to rent it and it holds that number of people easily. They are very laid back

Ummm....have you ever seen a map of North America?
Canada literally includes parts of the Arctic. Their roads are sometimes built on permafrost.
