Labor Day marks the traditional but unofficial end of summer. School has started so families have headed back home. The town slows down a little but this weekend begins my favorite time of year. Temperatures are cooler but you can still swim in the lake. The bugs are gone so going for a hike is a real pleasure. And the [...]

The 2014 New England Patriots Magnetic Schedule is in! Kickoff for the first game is on September 7th. Stop in the office for your schedule or send me an e-mail (stan@fairpoint.net) and I will put one in the mail.

This Saturday, August 16th, are two anticipated events that are always well attended and raise significant funds for their respective organizations.

First up in the morning is the 39th Annual Arts & Artisans Fair that benefits the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library. Starting at 9 am and continuing until 3 pm, this juried show has over 50 artisans spread inside and out the New Suncook School on Route 5. There will also be demonstrations, an always popular book sale, raffles and homemade refreshments. Come on out to see the talents of many local artists and craftsmen.

After a day at the Arts Fair or just tired from a great afternoon swimming and boating on the lake, have dinner at the Center Lovell Firehouse from 4-7 pm.  The food is always good and plentiful and proceeds benefit the Lovell Volunteer Fire Department. For just $9 you will have 1/2 chicken, freshly picked corn on the cob, delicious side dishes and ice cream treats. Be sure to come early as last year the kitchen ran out of chicken!

Cheers to all 2014 Tour de Lovell riders! It was a great day to be riding on the road.

Although there were weeks of site preparation and the pouring of the new foundation and there is still plenty of finishing work to be done, the actual lifting and moving of the structure took a little more than a week. I must say, Mighty Impressive! And it won't be long before it will look like the house is in the original spot.

It is time to get your bikes ready! This Saturday is the 9th Annual Tour de Lovell. The race starts at 8 am at the New Suncook Elementary School on Route 5.

Two changes for 2014: The course has been extended from 20 miles to 21.3 and there will be rolling start. As always, there will be raffle prizes, t-shirts, food/refreshments, awards and fun.

The Tour de Lovell benefits the Lovell Recreation Department and the Lovell Volunteer Fire Department.

Remember, if you are not riding, please be careful of the bike riders!

Whenever I see a 'Fox & Sons' sign in a yard, it is always difficult for me not to stop and become a sidewalk superintendent. It is fascinating to see a built house lifted from its existing foundation and moved to another foundation without falling apart. Almost as delicate as [...]
