Question Evolution? Or "Revolution"?

The oldest area in Wolfeboro just got jammed-in by a developer's condominium. Many trees disappeared and scant inches separate buildings now. If you can't find a parking space in Wolfeboro—or get a parking ticket—mention that condo to a Selectman there.

Two unwanted stores, Rite-Aid and Dunkin Donuts, are the real blight on "a true gem".

If you find an actual "Wolfeboro rush hour", it can be traced to the two stores with the only plastic signage in town. (And Dunkin Donuts in particular). Mention the traffic jam at Dunkin Donuts to a Selectman, please.

A beautiful area, Sandwich.

That automobile racetrack would have been another blight on still another beautiful New Hampshire town. I testified against the racetrack to Sandwich Selectmen years ago, and the town "didn't evolve" a racetrack overlooking the town.

As Martha Stewart might say, "That's a good thing".
