Obama Couldn’t Wait: His New Christmas Tree Tax
I want to be the first to call,”GRINCH!”.
Seriously, 5 to 6 million dollars for a new government agency. THAT NEVER WAS AUTHORIZED BY CONGRESS! Correct me if I’m wrong, isn’t congress supposed to O.K. new taxes?
In the fall, when the water is cool and the wind is calm I’m struck by how black the river water looks. It’s as if all the life has fled the waters for unknown destinations.
Send me a postcard when you get to South Carolina.
Bed & Bath parking lot. Lesson to learn?
Always carry a camera.
Note the huge rocks dumped in front of the walkway to the beach at Nantasket. Gee, not very much beach space left for the public, is there? The State of Massachusetts collects taxes to pay for the maintenance of the state beaches, and in the case of Nantasket they also collect a $7.00 parking fee from May to September. With all that money, this is what they do with it. I spent a lot of time at Nantasket when I was young, I never go there in the summer now.
To repeat, there is nothing the State can do better than the private sector or in this case, small town government.
On the North River 
I thought i remembered that place. Who stole the beach?

The decision to drop the rocks in front of the seawall was made to protect it, cause the waves to break up before hitting the wall. But as you can see, at high tide there is very little beach left. Take those rocks and pile them up offshore, a breakwater, and the same effect could be had without ruining the beach.
Can you believe they want $7 to park there now, for that?
