Weirs Beach Cumberland Farms Open

A couple years ago when gasoline was approaching $2.00/gal, President George W Bush said; "If you don't like the price of gas, then just don't buy any. Heck, it's that simple."

Ever notice how the large canopy above the gas pumps at the Meredith Cumberland Farms is all white and not the usual bright orange and blue. That's because the Meredith planning board wanted it to blend with the neighborhood.

Too bad that the Laconia planning board didn't follow the Meredith example and do the same.

Hopefully, the Gilford planning board will go with an all white canopy at the Cumby to be built across from Lowe's.

While the Cumerland Farm in Ashland is a good store what with its' long hours and all, having an all white canopy would have been a big improvement. That bright orange and blue canopy is a huge eyesore. Let's see, it is located between the all white, colonial style, Scribner library and the stone masonry Baptist Church. It's this large, brightly lit, orange and blue gasoline canopy. Making the canopy all white tones it down and creates a lot better neighborhood blend.

While it's too late for Laconia, maybe the Gilford planning board could go check it ou!.
