Lakeview Dodge was bought out by AutoServe and shut down. I guess they figured the Dodge dealership in Tilton was the only one they needed in the area. In general we'll be seeing fewer dealerships...

It actually goes back farther than that. It's Back To The Future - the 1970's. Many proposed projects that would have lessened, if not eliminated our dependence on foreign sources of oil were on the...

Even though refiners have shifted some more production to diesel, they can only move a limited percentage to diesel. To go beyond that can take a major reconfiguration of the refinery systems,...

Not Bad!
For use around the lake it's generally more than sufficient. You won't reach from one end of the lake to the other, but you'll have a few miles range. That's usually enough to reach someone on the...

I've used my 5 watt handheld with the rubber duck antenna supplied with it and with an antenna mounted on my boat. At best I'd get 6 to 10 miles over open water with the rubber duck antenna. Using it...

Ice Out Prediction for 2008
I'm guessing it's going to be a 'normal' Ice Out, with it occurring sometime around Tax Day (April 15th). I'll even hazard a guess as to the time: 3:30PM.

One of the worst I've come across so far here in the Lakes Region is Winona Road between Meredith and New Hampton. It isn't just frost heaves but the erosion and sinks in the road that make it...
