As a result, the railroad wouldlike to remind the public thatcaution should be exercised atall times around moving trainsand to always expect a train.Other safety considerations tokeep in mind include gradecrossing signals, which shouldalways be obeyed. Driversshould stop when they hear whistle signals at grade cross-ings and never try to beat a train

at a crossing or park on or near a railroad crossing.

In an effort to promote the mes-sage of railroad safety, theHobo and WinnipesaukeeScenic Railroads works closelywith Operation Lifesaver, anationally recognized non-prof-it organization that works dili-gently to improve railroad safe-ty through engineering, educa-tion and enforcement.

“People need to be aware of the potential danger around movingrail equipment, even when railcars and locomotives are mov-ing at slow speeds,” statedBenjamin Clark, Vice Presidentof the Railroad. “Safety isalways our first priority.”

For the Hobo Railroad, scenictourist excursion trains willdepart from Hobo Junction inLincoln, NH on weekends start-

ing Saturday, May 28, 2016 before switching to daily opera-tions on Friday, June 24, 2016for the summer and into the fall.The one hour and twentyminute round-trip excursionstravel along the PemigewassetRiver between Lincoln, NorthWoodstock and Woodstock, NHand cross several roadways and

bridges along the way.

The Winnipesaukee Scenic

Railroad, which is based inMeredith & Weirs Beach, NH,will also open for weekendoperations on Saturday, May28, 2016. Daily operations willget underway on Friday, June24, 2016 for one and two hour round-trip excursions along thewestern shore of LakeWinnipesaukee and PaugusBay.

“People love to look at trainsand we have a number of spe-

cial events scheduled through-out the season where they can

see and experience rail travel upclose and personal in a safemanner,” concluded Clark.

Both the Hobo Railroad inLincoln, NH, and theWinnipesaukee Scenic Railroadin Meredith and Weirs Beach,

NH offer a variety of specialevents and scenic excursionsfor the general public, schoolgroups and bus tours from midMay though late October.

Am I a traitor (or a wise shop- per)? My new-to-me bike camewith only one key. Knowinghow I am, I thought a second

back-up key might be in order.Called the HD dealer - I wouldhave to come in with my regis-tration, photo ID, take a bloodtest, and pee in a cup. To get theextra official key with a black

plastic HD cover over the bow(the part you hold) is $30 – andit would take two weeks toreceive it. Or I could go toBob’s Lock and Key inLaconia, walk in, pass the keyover, listen to some grindingnoises, and almost immediatelyhave a perfectly working copy...for $8.50. It’s goldish on color and missing the HD name,however. Worth it? To me itwas; that’s $20 bucks to spendon something else (like pizza or ice cream).Speaking of ice cream (clever

segue there), the sign thatspring is really here has hap-

pened. Not only am I getting aride in today, but the Ever-love-ly Miss Kim and I recently wentup to Moose Scoops in Warren.It didn’t disappoint!

Am I the only one? I have start-ed to notice things that have to

be more than coincidence onmy Facebook feed. For exam-

ple, there was a story about aman who was arrested for tak-ing pictures up women’s skirts.Then an ad for a photographer came next. Or a story about a

baby drop-off box for unwanted babies and then the next post (ameme) said “I am not a babydaddy; I am a father.”Coincidence or is someonemessing with me?

Email has certainly changed. Iam down to two regular con-

tributors, but when I have a business question, it’s my go-tomethod of contact unless I pick up my home telephone (I stillhave a land-line as we live in adead zone). Work, on the other hand, often offers me hundredsof emails when I get in (theremay be one or two hidden with-in to actually place ads).

Regarding the recent demon-strations we are seeing on thenews, all I have to say is 1968.

There are parameters. I agreethat you should adapt to

America if you want to be here.We have a flag, a language, anda culture. If you don’t likethem, find your own separate

peace or stay where your flag,language, and culture are morecomfortable. We have a lot of latitude here, so reasonablyadapt.

After I sold my motorcycle lastwinter, I was okay thinking thatwas it for bikes, but as theweather has hinted at getting

better, I knew I had to keep rid-ing as long as I could, even if itwasn’t that often. Basically,you’re out there surrounded bynothing but air (and a lot of idiots), straddling a pile of pow-ered metal and rubber, separat-

ed from the road by a couple of feet. It’s like sitting sidewayson a piano bench and going 65+mph. Yes, there is an element of danger, but having ridden off and on for over 50 years, it isnot me I worry about.

We are the sum total of every-thing we have seen, heard, etc.,etc. I have read W. Owen, D.Trumbo, S. Crane, R. Jarrell,and C. Sandburg and listened toP. Ochs, B. Saint-Marie,Country Joe and he Fish, B.McGuire, Buffalo Springfield,Metallica, B. Sadler, CharlieDaniels, The Kingston Trio, andCrosby, Stills, Nash, and Young(Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner,Smith, Sacco, and Vanzetti [old

joke]) , so of course I am

against any unnecessary or ‘bad’ war waged to make therich richer. We are all eachunique in all the world, soeverything that has come before

makes us who we are.Therefore, it’s no wonder basedon our backgrounds andupbringings that you support(fill in candidate’s name) and Imay not. That should be okay,

but it isn’t, so if you (or I) support (fill in candidate’s) name,there has to be insults and namecalling. No! Don’t be a bully! (Ihate bullies!) Agree to disagreeand move on.

Thinking the older I get, themore meaning some holidaysand special occasions have...while others have less.Birthdays, for example, are justanother day for me. MemorialDay and Veterans Day on theother hand....

Just after 7:30 pm on 5/10 as

I am writing this part. With zero percent reporting, Trump has been declared the winner inWV. While it may seem he wasthe only candidate in the race,at least nine others receivedvotes on the Republican side.The way things seem to be

going, why not just tel poll the nation and just the winner of the nationtion. Nobody will hav

bothered to get out an

Just a suggestion....

(As Tom continues his recovery,we’ll share a column back fromMay of 2014.)

The colors of autumn are ofteneasier to grasp for me thanthose of this fleeting and rapid-ly shifting stage of spring.

Autumn delivers red, orange,yellow, and brown in a stunningdisplay. But in a WhiteMountain spring it’s all green,but there seem to be a thousandshades of green as new lifepulses through the trees andshrubs. Even when it comes tothe leaves on similar trees, Ifind there is a difference at thistime of year. Not every birchtree is at the same stage of development. Some are slower in delivering their leaves to theforest and are just beginning tobud, while others are further along and their little flags of mint green are larger. I’venoticed this especially with the

beech leaves. Many are already

full. Not in color, but in size.Others, meanwhile, are just

barely curling out of their shellsand tentatively reaching out totheir new world.

In the shady and sun dappledforest, it’s not as easy to see.But once higher up with viewsout to other mountains or downinto the valleys, the variation of greens is dizzying. They areimpossible to define.

In looking back at the WhiteMountain artists of the 1800s, Irealize they never captured this

phenomenon. They mostlyworked from down below andlooked up at the mountains, andtheir paintings seemed to cap-

ture full summer, or a bit of fall,some of winter. But not thesethousand shades of green.

Yesterday, when Atticus and Iwere on the ledges looking out,I thought of the dizzying arrayof greens and how impossible itis to describe. I would imaginethey would have been just asimpossible to capture on a can-vas.

In another two or three weeks,this uniqueness will be camou-flaged by a uniform lush, ver-dant sea. All will be a deepgreen and we’ll have to waituntil late September and therolling out of the autumn rain-

bow across the ripples of moun-

tains to see the trees march totheir own drummers again.

For now though, we take it allin. The shades, the shapes, thesizes, the wild impossible to

capture population of greens.We inhale with eyes wide andare left in wonder.

It’s not unlike looking up at thestars each night. If you get to a

place where you can see the sky perfectly, where mankindhasn’t diminished their viewwith too much light, you lay onyour back and there is a tapestryof infinity above. It boggles themind and forces us to surrender to nature.

I was thinking about this yester-day and last night read againWhitman’s poem, “When IHeard the Learn’dAstronomer”.

When I heard the learn'd astronomer,When the proofs, the figures,were ranged in columns beforeme,When I was shown the chartsand diagrams, to add, divideand measure them,When I sitting heard theastronomer where he lectured withmuch applause in the lecture-room,

How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,Till rising and gliding out I wander' d off by myself,

In the mystical moist night-air,and from time to time,

Look'd up in perfect silence at

the stars.

I find comfort in knowineverything can be capturdefined. Not really. It’sthe essence of the big p

which delivers us to wand not the definition fouthe certainty of the microsview.

Sweet Harmony!The Midweeklings

Harmony is the vehicle and theMidweeklings are doing thedriving! I was able to hop onboard recently for the last leg of

one sweet trip, catching their last set at the Common Cafe' inRumney. The ride started with aresounding rendition of theMama's and the Papa's hit song“California Dreaming” and pro-ceeded through the back roadsand byways of a plethora of musical styles. We heard folk,country, rock and blues, and wewere even treated to a littledetour into the world of Funk asHolly Furlone launched into adance floor filling version of the Deee-Lite number “Grooveis in the Heart”. With a bal-anced mix of original musicsuch as the collaboration “ShotDown” (winner of a song fightcompetition and featured ontheir record “Ten Stories High”)“Twisted” ( H. Furlone) and“CoalTrain” (R. Puga) andvocally strong covers such asthe aforementioned CaliforniaDreaming, The Midweeklingskept the journey exciting!

And just as the ride sloweddown and passengers preparedto disembark, theMidweeklings delivered onemore; an A Capella old spiritual“I Bid You Goodnight” whichseems to be becoming a tradi-tion for this gifted vocal trio. A

perfect number to drive ithome, safe, sound and satisfied!

With so many talented musi-cians in our region these days,we are fortunate to be able tohear extraordinary string pick-

ers, percussionists and key- board players. And it is true thatmany of these acts employ ahealthy dose of harmony intheir sound, but with this trio,the harmony is the sound andthe essence of theMidweeklings. The combina-tion of these three voices cre-ates a vibration resonating withthe audience in such a way thateveryone feels compelled tosing along. As Raf puts it “it's

the energy from the audiencethat actually fuels this band!” In

between songs, the space isfilled with with a lot of laughter and joking, strengthening the

jovial bond with the audience.

The Midweeklings are: HollyFurlone, Jim Tyrell and RafaelPuga all seasoned veterans of the White Mountain musicscene. Each a powerful vocalist,the trade off and mix of instru-mentation only adds to the fla-vor as acoustic guitars, bass,key boards and a myriad of

hand percussion can be heardon any given number. Formedin 2013 after repeated OpenMic sessions at the CountryCow in Campton, the trioembarked on the RPM chal-lenge in 2014, which is to writeand record an entire album inthe month of February (Moreinfo atw w w . r p m c h a l l e n g e . c o m )which resulted in “Ten StoriesHigh” and again in 2015 whichgave us “Now and Then” (listento this record at http://themid-weeklings.blogspot.com/)

The Midweeklings will contin-ue to play around our regionand beyond as they are occa-

sionally tapped for appearancesuch as their opening for JohnPrine and the Avett Brothers in2015. You can find the latestschedule on their Facebook

p a g e(https://www.facebook.com/themidweeklings/timeline). And

be sure that you will leave aMidweeklings performancewith a little bounce in your step,and a song on your lips!

The Electoral College ProtectsThe Rights & Interests of Small

Population States

A letter appeared in last week’sedition of the Littleton Courier which advocated that we ‘get rid of awarding states by the

Electoral College in general (Presidential) elections’.

This person obviously does not understand the Electoral College and the function it per-

forms in safeguarding our Constitutional Republic from a

potential “Tyranny of the Majority”. (Yes, that’s right; weare a Constitutional Republicand not a Democracy).

The Electoral College is a process, not a place. The found-ing fathers established it in theConstitution as a compromisebetween the election of the

President by a vote in Congress

and election of the President bya popular vote of citizens.

The Electoral College consistsof 538 electors. A majority of 270 electoral votes is required to be elected President. Your

state’s entitled allotment of electors equals the number of members in its Congressional delegation: one for each mem-ber in the House of

Representatives plus two for your Senators.

Each candidate running for President in your state has hisor her own group of electors.The electors are generally cho-

sen by the candidate’s political party, but state laws vary onhow electors are selected, what their responsibilities are, thequalifications of the Electorsand restrictions on who the

Electors may vote for.

After the presidential election, your governor prepares a“Certificate of Ascertainment”listing all of the candidates whoran for President in your statealong with the names of their respective electors. TheCertificate of Ascertainment also declares the winning presi-dential candidate in your stateand shows which electors will represent your state at the meet-ing of the electors in December

of the election year.

It is my opinion that the people supporting Donald Trump are a perfect example of who we need to be protected from. They seemto support Mr. Trump becausehe panders to their fears, anger and frustration and not because

they have rationally decided that electing him would be good for the country.

Furthermore, if the ECollege were to be aband candidates were ele

popular vote, states thmajor population centercontrol the Pres

Election and the votes ofin New Hampshire anlow population states

Tech Tips, Talk & Advice For Your Computer

Despite the warm winter, springhas taken its proper time inarriving. Here we are in Maywith the leaves just beginning tounfurl from their buds, and fullyhalf my daffodils still waiting to

bloom. As the sun and showerstake turns on these cool May

days, my thoughts turn to transplanting perennials.

Having divided and replantedsome echinacea, lupine, andlilies last fall, it was a short liston my mind for this spring.Ryan tended to a few youngcedars that once seemed like anice edge, but now seemed tooclose to the garden. With shovel

and wheelbarrow, he movedthem to the slope beyond our cabin. Hopefully their roots willadapt from rich, garden dirt tothin, mineral soil within a mini-mum of grudges.

I, meanwhile, took my hand

trowel and knelt beside the cranberries. We’ve harvested a fewfruits, but their location at thefoot of our blueberry bushes -due to a lack of prepared spaceas of their planting three yearsago - was not the best choice. Ihad liked the thought of a carpetof cranberry vines covering theground, while blueberriesreached to the sky. A nice

image, but I failed to predicthow fast the blueberries wouldgrow, and the lack of space for the cranberries to claim their share of the sunshine. Certainlythey could do better elsewhere.So I dug up ten of my viny

plants, leaving a couple in their original spots to see how theywould do over time. The othersI carried to a small bed at thefoot of our herb circle and plant-ed into their new home. Fullsun, richer dirt, and fewer weeds(excepting the overly socialmint); I’m looking forward to

watching how they grow.The final move involved thesmaller of our two sage plants.Its brethren was quite vigorous,a branchy plant growing moredominant with each season.This one, thought, was tuckedtowards an edge, becoming

pinched between horseradish,oregano, and mint (of course),and generally looking less than

pleased about its situation. For this one, I had a special place.

Last fall Ryan and I made thesignificant (it felt, to us) deci-sion to fill in the old stone wellon the property. Upon movingon to the land six years ago,Ryan had removed as manyrocks as he could of those thathad been thrown down the wellto fill the hole. For years we’vewatched it and never seen water at the bottom, nor detected anygeneral wetness in the area tosuggest a high water table.

Though Ryan and I liked thenotion of resurrecting the oldwell, the lack of obvious water and its location next to our regu-lar footpath (we long had cau-tion tape around the area in aneffort to warn visitors) gave usour doubts. So last autumn,after finishing the root cellar

project and finding we had someextra dirt left over from the

backfilling process, weThat dirt dug up from under to create our cellnow went back to equain filling up the well-hol

Boat Ramp at Wellington State Park (Newfound Lake) Closurefor Repair of the Dock Pilings

The public boat access facility to Newfound Lake at WellingtonState Park in Bristol, NH, will be closing for approximately twoweeks to repair the dock pilings at the ramp. The closure willbegin on the evening of Sunday, May 22, 2016. We hope toreopen the ramps on Saturday morning June 4, with the seasonaldock available later that week. Please check back to this site peri-odically as the exact day of the reopening will be announced hereas soon as it can be confirmed.

During the repairs, both the cartop carry-in and trailer ramps willbe within the safety zone setback of the crane and pile placement.For this reason the ramps will be closed and there will be noopportunity to launch or retrieve motorized boats, canoes, kayaksor other self- propelled craft during this time period. The parkingarea for the ramps will be closed to the public. The fee-basedparking area for the beach at Wellington State Park will remainopen.

New Hampshire's Public Boat Access Program is funded throughboat registration fees and federal Sport Fish and WildlifeRestoration funds. www.wildnh.com/maps/boatfish/index.html.

The National Parks Service’sLand and Water ConservationFund (LWCF) grant money isnow available. The program,administered by NewHampshire Division of Parksand Recreation, will be holdingGrant Round Twenty-Eight toaward the appropriated funds.

The LWCF is a federally fund-ed matching grant programintended to preserve and

enhance opportunities for out-door recreation. Various levelsof local government includingcities, towns, counties, andschool districts are eligible toapply for assistance and spon-sor projects. Funds may be usedfor the development of facilitiesand/or acquisition of land for

public outdoor recreation use.The program requires that spon-sors commit to a minimum 50%share of total project costs, andmaintain funded sites as publicoutdoor recreation areas in per-

petuity.

In 2015, under Grant Round-Twenty Seven, a total of $930,000 was awarded for use

by eight cities and towns to

complete development andacquisition projects throughoutthe state. Since 1965 over 180towns, cities and communitieshave benefited from the fundingwhich has totaled more than$38 million being granted for outdoor recreation.

Potential applicants must sub-mit an “Intent to Apply” formwith the Division by 4:00 PM,June 3, 2016. Forms, which

provide program administratorswith basic project information,are available onnhstateparks.org under Community Recreation. Thecontent of the submitted formsalong with project site inspec-tions will be evaluated for eligi-

bility. Potential applicants

whose project proposals aredetermined to be eligible willreceive an invitation to applyincluding full application pack-ets and further instructions.
