    Mr Pizza in Gorham is Closing (Now Reopened under new owners)

    I'm ashamed to admit we eat out at least once a week with 2 time very common and 3 times not uncommon. I must admit there are many places out there that don't have the consistency with food and or wait staff of the more successful places. For both food and service. I love the places with...

    Mr Pizza in Gorham is Closing (Now Reopened under new owners)

    odd in that I just came back from there. Price's seemed high and food not so good. Service ( waitress) wasn't good. We were the only ones int there. Help was all hanging around the bar.

    Fatality on Mt. Guyot

    Ignoring or not knowing mother nature well seems to be a big factor in many so called expierenced hikers deaths in the winter. Take the Monadnock park ranger Kenneth R. Holmes , then Kate's death on Monroe,Emily last season, now this and many more before and they'll be more to come. One thing...

    Fatality on Mt. Guyot

    Again my 2 cents. I wouldn't of gone up there Tuesday. What for? Weather looked bad. These folks don't see that. Blinded by the desire.

    NH Rattlesnakes Article

    Tried to get a Rattlesnake vaccine for my dog early last spring because we were going to live in the Black HIlls SD for spring,summer,fall and our vet said to get them out there cause there isn't a damand for them here. Got it out in Rapid City. Seems many dog owners out there get it done for...

    Petition to change the name of Mt Washington

    Amen and a lot more than that. There is a reason the founding fathers left England starting with the Pilgrims and why they're still coming here to live.

    Mt Guyot Rescue

    I ripped tendons in both ankles first time when in high school football. 2nd time freak twist off a curb. The 1st one never healed and would twist over with aweful pain by something as a small indent in the ground. Up until my late 30's. It was not until I started wearing ankle support high top...

    Glacier National Park

    So much more beautiful then the Whites I feel. . Last year we went early to mid June. That was a waste. This year I see the Sun road was open early. It's a hikers paradise really. Most tourists stay a day just driving over the sun road. But hikers get to see the real beauty. Also you probably...

    Journey to Jericho ATV fest next weekend Aug 4th to the 6th

    I'm in the Black Hills for the summer. Side by sides,Razors and ATV's can go on any road in SD except the interstate. I'd rather have them then the motorcyles now coming around for sturgis anyday. Friggin loud and then the some that trash the area and or are obnoxious. Or be hiking on Lafayette...

    Journey to Jericho ATV fest next weekend Aug 4th to the 6th

    Like many gatherings I feel most atv folks are good people. Thankful for that. Probably better than the rainbow people this summer. I'm working a campground in the black hills this season and sturgis is coming quick. It will be interesting. God bless the usa where we can do these things.

    All Trails Strikes again - Hiker rescue on Osceola

    I'm in the Black Hills SD for the summer and I must admit the All Trails app has been good to use and get an accurate idea on where and what trails are around and what to expect. As we know one source isn't key. But All trails ( I only have the free version) has given us some nice hikes to...

    Campground Hosting

    Had another crazy camper issue yesterday morning. Older lady came in about 9.30 pm. Didn't check in with us. Had a nice camper van registered in Florida. Wife did her 7 am rounds to pull tags and check for new campers. Checked in the camper and asked for camping fee which is $ 24 or $12 with...

    Campground Hosting

    I believe it and seen it at Corps of Engineer sites across usa. Always sites available when we found them. Usually we were on the road and needed a place to crash for the night. Many at reservoirs in the middle of the plains or flat lands of central usa. One site I landed at was in the Texas...

    Rainbow Family Gathering in the Kilkennies Fourth of July

    Yes it was done the right way. Not total lack of responsiblity and classlessness of the people of this group. Let it be a warning for future visits to other communities. I'm not surprised at all of what happened there and I doubt they will leave it like they found it. They'll be trash and items...

    Nice Weather, for Ducks ;)

    Yea.. Ben and Jerrys should give back their land to the natives. Most places and things are scared to the Natives it seems.

    my nearest USF's campground had a group of guys that got good and rowdy. They were warned few times and didn't care if the rangers came. Host finally they called the rangers. They ended up arresting 3 of them. They had out standing warrants. Go figure. True story . Another one true...

    Campground Hosting

    It might be a laid back place. If it's small or no popular beach area. I talked to a host here that did mine last year and now is further away from Mt. Rushmore and at a larger campground with a lake with boats and access to atv trails. Mostly locals he says vs mine with international and all...

    Campground Hosting

    I'm at grizzly primitive campground in keystone sd. No lake but heard horror stories about them. But we have plenty of idiot's to. I just warned a guy about lashing his two large dogs. They justify breaking the rules. Gives me the evil eye. I told him I'll warn him twice then I call the...

    Campground Hosting

    Don't want to hi jack the thread anymore but we should start a new one called "proper camping etiquette." I know other hosts who do the lake campgrounds and they have the same huge issues. I have a small primitive one and it's much easier so far. They don't read signs at all here either. Or the...
