Sunday Morning on CBS is one of my favorites! I look forward to the interesting and extremely informative stories, And, there is always an observation or opinion to ponder.

I hope to pass on a little of the same........

                                                                   NEW HAMPSHIRE SUNDAY MORNING

 

Concord, New Hampshire  & Eminent Domain 

                          One of the most interesting on going stories of Concord New Hampshire is the story of the Langley  Parkway. The Parkway has been an ongoing project in Concord for many years. The project seeks to connect Clinton Street (a major route to Rt.89) and the entrance to Concord Hospital.   

                                                       hospital

  As the project nears completion there is one small obstacle! The Tuttles! The Tuttles live in a small house that sits in the middle of the projected Langley Parkways path. And the Tuttles don't want to move!

 The Tuttles have owned their house since 1935. It is on the National Register of Historic Places. Mr. Tuttle's father Don was the editor of a promotional magazine New Hampshire Troubadour and a pioneer of Winter Tourism in New Hampshire.

The City of Concord has been very sympathetic to the Tuttles and have offered to move the home to a similar setting in the city. The Tuttles cannot come to agreement of the "spots" suitability. As of April the city has declared Eminent Domain and the Tuttles house is scheduled to be moved. As for the Tuttles???They haven't decided!

 Epsom, New Hampshire & a Cataclysmic Event

                                                         May 2006 will be rmembered in New Hampshire as the Mothers Day  Floods. In Epsom, NH it is known as the day the River died! On that day the Suncook River, swollen from the torrential rains,changed its course and Geologists saw something they may see only once in a lifetime...the birth of a new river reach.

Many, along the river that for so long had provided a generous gift of recreation and ambiance , were now left in limbo. The Epsom Valley Campground..no longer had "great Fishin" and swimmin!

An Endangered Species mussel known as the brook floater was rescued and sent to the Nashua Fish Hatchery. THe situation presently is under study by the Army Corps of Engineers.

 

Concord, New Hampshire & HGTV

                                The popular cable show My House is Worth What?? was in Concord,New Hampshire

                                                    house

 The network was in Concord and the surrounding area last week filming three homes that have had improvements since they were  purchesed! They evaluate how much the improvements have increased the value of the home. The program will air this Fall on HGTV

I'm fascinated by the Tuttle's plight- hopefully they've found a location before the wrecking ball arrives!  Please do an update when they decide- you've got my curiosity up!

Hi Joan -- you did a great job.  Are you going to be on HGTV?  I always knew you were a star!  Hope all goes well with the Tuttles.

A little petty but...oh well!

Thanks Sue....I'm trying. I think I'm getting more comfortable! Yours aren't anything to sneeze at yourself Lady!

The whole River didn't move...just the elbow in Epsom. The people that had their Restaurant overlooking the Falls were a bit upset! The Elks ended up buying the property!
