Name: Josh Lizotte Current City/Town: Springfield Native City/Town: Hampton Falls Tell us a little bit about yourself. I currently work as a Realtor with the O’Halloran Group in New London. It has been an amazing experience being able to help people through the purchase process. Specializing in luxury and waterfront properties, I get so see […]
If you are like me you have become accustomed, and likely taken for granted, easy access to everyday luxuries such as shopping malls, Starbucks, bookstores, restaurants, entertainment, etc. Never did I think I’d consider a life without these amenities around the corner. I’ll admit, when I began exploring the possibility of moving from Bangor, Maine […]
Since moving to New Hampshire, I’ve determined that one thing the state does really well is preserve cool old buildings. In my mind, bonus points are awarded to projects that are completely repurposed and serve their communities in different ways: the small business economy, the environment, and the coffee consumer, in particular. Lucky’s Coffee Garage […]
My morning on March 10th started at about 8:30 as I began to ready myself, my boyfriend, my brother and his girlfriend. We would be picking my mom up along the way. It was a chilly morning with some snow dusting, none of us were happy about the 5k Shamrock Shuffle we were about to […]
Sushi. A delicacy that I am just barely starting to dabble in because I never thought of myself as a seafood lover, let alone raw fish. I decided to branch out and seek out some sushi and looked at Lebanon and Hanover, towns that are ripe with culture because of their proximity to Dartmouth College […]
Step 1: Lose your car keys somewhere in the pick-your-own-pumpkin patch at your local CSA. Catch a ride home with an obliging friend and drown your sorrows in olive oil and Bolognese at Stella’s in Lyme, New Hampshire. After taking in the charming 1780s building and tiny grocery full of imported Italian foods, head home […]
Plainfield, New Hampshire is an unassuming town of 2,000, but it would be a mistake to overlook this charming New England town. It’s home to a state forest, a bird sanctuary, the gorgeous and sprawling campus of Kimball Union Academy, and the Maxfield Parrish state highway. Parrish, a key figure in America’s Golden Age of […]
When autumn rolls around, my high school friends know that it’s time for something we’ve affectionately dubbed “The Listen Center Challenge.” Listen Services – for those of you outside the Upper Valley – is a multi-branched thrift store with NH locations in Canaan and Lebanon. It’s an incredible community resource with proceeds going toward heating […]
Dartmouth’s corpse flower is scheduled to bloom on Wednesday, September 21 or Thursday, September 22. The corpse flower or titan arum (Amorphophallus titanium) is the world’s largest unbranched flower, and it only blooms about once every seven years. Blooms are usually considered rare, but 2016 has been a bizarre year for America’s corpse flowers. Many […]
When I first moved to New Hampshire, my leading concern was: how am I going to survive the winter? For 27 years, I had lived south of the Mason-Dixon line in America’s “humid subtropical” clime. I was accustomed to breaking out my winter coat maybe three or four days a year. I knew I was […]
