• Last night, nearly two months past July 4th, fireworks (distant to us) could be heard returning echoes off mountains in Wakefield and points east—perhaps even to Maine. Lakesrider take note!
Yep. They were probably coming from Suissevale....

See? And if you read Paugus Bay FF's reply he only hears them in July in Laconia.
BTW...I wasn't whole heartedly complaining about the fireworks, I was just letting the OP know there is worse noise than a Weedwhacker or Leafblower that only runs for a short time. Unlike the fireworks that go on and on and on.
I love living in Moultonborough/Suissevale. It is where I bought my house after I got married. Where my slip is. Where my friends are, and where I planned to retire. That part may have changed but I still call it home.
