No doubt, there wil be some more newspaper articles on the prospects of getting construction money from the federal government.
Belknap County has the state's second highest unemployment rate after Coos County, which is the northern most county. To employ additional workers, maybe the federal gov can demand WOW Trail construction digging all done by hand with no machine back-hoe diggers.....just locals with picks & shovels & wheel barrows...the feds is hiring....it's time to go get on that there shovel gang...and start swing'n a pick and digg'n the ground on up wit a shovel....Probably, when the railroad built the embankments 125 years ago, it was all done by hand labor.
What's the NH minimum wage now.....is it $7.15/hour?
Seems like the WOW Trail should qualify as a "shovel-ready" project.

Hey there....here's a shovel....now, go get busy!
