Thanks so much for your help! The guidebook sounds great!

I am building up her hiking stamina now in preparation. I can't really hike her more than two days in a row with work, but she has tolerated 13 miles in a day, as well as consecutive days of 6+ miles without issue. I will try to plan to hike back to back days on any golden weekends I have between now and the trip to toughen them up, and bring some paw balm with me!

The OP also does not address the huge expenses a landlord incurs when a tenant doesn’t pay the rent. Sure, you can evict. Try evicting an elderly tenant or a single mother with kids. Even if the tenant is in the wrong and the landlord is in the right, a judge will automatically grant the tenant an extension. During that time, you think the landlord will be forgiven utility bills? Real estate tax bills? Mortgage bills? What do you think happens to a landlord who depends on the rents as their only income? That’s right! They stand a good chance of losing their investment. Now, is a landlord allowed to discriminate against single mothers or elderly tenants and only rent to single people or DINKS? They are not.

The above are just some of the reasons a prospective landlord prefers to turn rental properties into short term rentals. You get your money up front, and a dud tenant is gone in a week.

In New Hampshire, regardless of a lease or not, any place you've lived for over 90 days is considered a domicile and has to go through an eviction process.

I think you can still get shell casings at the GOAT

Are you for real?

I was a little confused. I thought maybe his job was to chase geese off campus.

What fact? Everything started so far has been opinion. Not a red herring at all.

It’s just a bar. It’s not named after TB. And, the original Goat in Hampton is 100 times better then the Manch location. But that’s because it’s Manchester….

We had a lion get loose in Southern California growing up. It happens.

To me it's been feeling like that over the past couple weeks, but maybe it will get really cold again in February.

End of February for me. I only tap a few trees and make small batches for myself. Basically I wait for the temperature to be above 40° during the day and below 32° at night.

Exactly re: 91.

Has OP looked at a map or driven around the Northeast and New England?

From PA, can confirm lol

Oh look a new tree! I cut it down but now what do I do about the stump?

Nobody's stopping you and the other people complaning about eversource from starting your own post. Do you people really think that the average Joe or Jane or Jordan working on the street has the power or authority to make the changes you want? Do you think the CEO of ES reads reddit?

If you and u/Most_Expert_8080 really care so much, go do something about it in person, don't whine on Reddit in an appreciation post.

Read the room, FFS.

This is actually not standard at all. In most states once you’ve established residency in a location that is considered your home and a legal process through civil court must be followed to evict someone whether there is a lease or not. OP should just Google NH tenant rights laws and I’m sure the info is there to be found.

Yeah, upper valley has three relatively painless ways to NJ: the train from WRJ, plus either Dartmouth Coach from Hanover to NYC or Cape Air from LEB to NYC, followed by NJ transit. Or driving. We have used all over these pretty regularly in the past.

It’s the job they picked. And they make huge OT. Those guys work hard. But we need to crack down on utilities not doing maintenance. The storm before Christmas the tree service had marked the tree that killed my power. But eversource is crying poverty that they can’t afford to cut all these trees.

The mall failed due to greed by the property owners who used it as a tax loss write-off.

The Goat bar and grill

Might as well blame the gun manufacturer and Santa Clause at this point.

Are you talking about zoning or code?

Code upgrades add to cost but I do think that they benefit in terms of safety. I recently had to replace a hot water heater and there was some solder that was melted off the top. The hot water heater is in a very tight space and we barely got by on code the last time we replaced it by going to a lower capacity unit. We would have had to upgrade the chimney diameter which would have meant making larger holes through ceilings, floors and roof. The plumbing company would only replace with an electric unit which required an additional circuit so it cost a few bucks to do. If I were a landlord, I'd have to pass this cost on - and stuff like this happens from time to time. You don't have to get up to code until you need to replace something or want to uprade something and then find out there there's a big cost to doing so.

On zoning? Sure. In my town, it's pretty easy to build something. I've watched many planning board meetings and the builders usually run roughshod over abutters. We have three large, new rental complexes that look pretty close to finished and at least one under construction. One of them looks like luxury apartments but I'm not sure of the others. I'm curious as to how quickly they will fill up. These things have been in progress for quite some time.

What specifically are you looking for on changing laws for new construction?

Not what he spent the day doing I'll tell you what

You're a loon. Sorry but your savings in income tax are likely negligible vs whatever you think you're doing with setting up an independent off grid but still fully functional home... and there is no quick way to new jersey from here anywhere

If you want to make the trip to NJ easy probs should live in NJ
