Default Melvin Village

I remember as a child back in the 60's that Don Kent (a weatherman, not a meteorologist as I recall) would very often cite the temperature in Melvin Village in his weather reports. As a Boston area kid I imagined it was some far off place in the NH wilderness - and in fact was more wilderness-like then than now... checking on a map I always wondered if Don had a place on the lake- or a buddy up there who'd call in the air temp for his weather reports via some exotic short wave radio, they certainly couldn't have telephones up there!
