I've been riding my scooters to Yellow Springs for coffee for a dozen years.

I like a lot of the vibe in this little village.

Christmas lights in our town, still strung back & forth across Main & Central Streets, the only town in NH that still uses this type pf lighting.

A few years back, the power company said no more, insurance reasons, surprisingly at Town Meeting, Town owned poles just for the purpose of retaining our historic lighting. not even budgeted, added as an amendment, passed easily
