In Maine blue herons are called shitpokes. Why? Well, it's Maine.

The Clarendon Gorge in Shrewsbury on the AT is a can't miss. Even if you don't hike there, the suspended bridge is right off - and I mean right off - Route 103, about 10 minutes from Rutland. If you want to stay at a super cool hiker hotel, I recommend the Inn at Long Trail (best Guinness in VT). Deer's Leap is right there and you can get a great view with a short hike.

Always Be Closing

Rock it out, man!

Cool that so many people are helping you remember. Kudos to you and all of them.

I'm an Independent. A real one. And guess what? It's my vote that matters in a purple state like New Hampshire. The closer a candidate is to the middle - whatever the party - is who I vote for. And right now, the Republican candidates that are in my district, Bolduc and Leavitt, are far-right wingnuts. Don't love the Dems at all, but that's who I have to vote for as they're closer to the middle (read: reasonable). And for that reason, the Dems will win in NH. Plain and simple.

Do you leave them or take them down after? Guessing you leave the anchors in place for future use.

Fascinating.

No dude. The rescue and wardens were for some kid who twisted an ankle. That's what the guy running the ambulance said. There was a school group, too, that was having issues. One girl was wearing crocs. I couldn't believe it.

BTW, remember this?

I think they should get billed for the chopper, personally.

Also, how do you get the line across? I'm unable to get on Instagram at the moment.

Cool man. Thanks! So you literally walk across it?

If so, I take back my church bells comment. More like bowling balls.

Pretty confident it's not permanent. We saw 'em Saturday, so we figure they probably did it for the weekend. Someone got hurt (not one of those guys) and we passed several wardens and rescue people going up to the lake portion, so if it was illegal or something, I'm pretty sure the wardens would do something about it. Doubt very highly it's illegal.

My buddies and I were trying to figure out how they got it up there. No way they could have hoisted it through the trees, so we're thinking maybe an air cannon of some sort. We were at the top watching them use a rope to pull across, what looked to be a cable. Still scratching our heads about it.

Just looked it up. Math checks out. Gracias!

If you make it over to the coast, you need to check out Throwback (https://www.throwbackbrewery.com/). It's in a renovated barn and has a cool outside/inside vibe. Beer and food are good as well.

Der.

They're going to put their resources in states where it's a lot closer than Hassan v Bolcuc. Then there's this: "Bolduc is resolute that he would not support McConnell as the GOP leader."

Really good article. It's some scary shit, though. I use trails all the time and every once in a while I'll see a tent. Mixed feelings on it because the only guy I knew that lived in a tent did so as he was down on his luck after a divorce. He went to work every day and, after a while, ended up finding an apartment. Pretty bad ass living in a tent in a NH winter. Other side of that coin is what this was - a bloodthirsty drifter with no regard for human life.

Really good article. Thanks for posting.

The Alchemist Brewery in Stowe.

Did someone say boobs? Where?!!!

>I brace for impact like I’m driving into Boston

Saugus to the airport on a busy day. Like Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.

"I also know i definitely do not want to live in manchester."

Dude, you're not even here yet and you're dissing ManchVegas??? Step off, bro. Manchester is like an ugly sister; we can make fun of her but she's off limits to outsiders.

OP, FishermanNervous7682 gave you a good itinerary. If you follow it, you'll pass by Al's Seafood http://alsseafoodnh.com/ in North Hampton. Do yourself a favor and grab a couple of lobsters.

Just came back to work from Covid. Me and two of my buddies got it (all of us are double boosted) but none of our wives or kids got it. Musta got the strain that likes only middle-aged men. The others had runny nose, coughing, bedridden, etc. Me? Just a four day splitting headache.
