Notice the comment about Rt. 108 through Smugglers' Notch. That would explain why the poor guy went that way. It seems too bad there isn't a way to show on GPS that it's a restricted road for large vehicles. Thanks, "anonymous" for shedding some light on that.

I need to remind all Joe's Ponders to remember dues were due on July 1. I have a short list of those who haven't paid yet, so please check your records to be sure you paid - and if you find out you're probably on my "list," put your dues in the mail or drop off at Hastings Store marked to my attention (Jane Brown), or plan to see George Anderson. That will save me time and the Association money if I don't have to send you a reminder. If you aren't sure, give me a call or e-mail me.
