It could be somewhere. Doherty is probably more than a frame now.

Oh yeah, it's getting there. I haven't seen it for a couple weeks but it had walls up if I remember correctly.

Does it still look like shit from Elm Park, since they cut down all those trees?
dpceee OP t1_jcfkiep wrote
Good, that makes me happy to hear. There will be plenty of potholes for me to report to DPW when I get home.

The quality of the drivers however remains the same. Shoutout to the failed abortion attempt on Rt. 9 at UMass this morning who tried to turn left from the middle lane. I hope your day is as pleasant as you are.

- Snow, though the streets are clear now. Spencer apparently got way more than we did. The snow was non-stop heavy the other day. Yesterday was gorgeously blue and windy af.
- Had the Saint Patty's Day parade on Sunday. I wasn't able to go but heard it was great. It was a beautiful day for it.
- Water levels are real good, WAAAY better then 9 months ago. Around when you left, Elm Park's ponds were basically all dried up. Cascade Falls looks beautiful especially with the frozen parts around the flow.
- Also just when you left they opened up a new section to the Columbus Park area of Coes Res. They built a beautiful wooden boardwalk going from the end of Circuit Ave down to Stearns complete with benches and trash barrels.
- There was a collapse of an apartment building roof on Mill Street. From what I remember the current owner was setting up to do improvements when the weight of the new material being staged on the roof made it collapse. He was a fairly recent owner so I know there was some back and forth with that and getting people housing.
That's about all I can tell you. I'm not connected to the music or night life scene. Where'd you go? You gone for long?

Was blown away when I realized how long it had been since that happened. Feels like just yesterday that story came out.

I remember that period when every town had a froyo shop. Was weird as hell and very obviously unsustainable.

You can definitely see it. That's going to take some time to get used to. In other new, the new building had a pretty interesting fire. Building materials were set alight by welding activities. The smoke could be seen for miles.

I did hear about that. I still get the T&G headlines in the old inbox from time to time.

Wait, I'm out of the loop on what happened. Was there a scandal about nature's classroom?
outb0undflight t1_jch3v4g wrote
Apologies for this being a Fox Milwaukee article, I had a hard time dredging up a local one from the relevant time even though I know it was covered.
Several years back this happened and people were uh...understandably pissed. Turns out Nature's Classroom had been doing this all over the place and recently it's started to go viral on Tiktok so it's getting brought up again.

Jesus Christ. I went to the one out on the Cape back in like 1992 and all we did was tromp around gathering tadpoles and crabs in the marshes and sing 'Let It Be' around a campfire.

Doherty is progressing really well, all the walls are finished and most of the windows are in as well.
Worcester also now has a bona fide lesbian bar, Femme Bar, and it looks like they'll even be hosting some trivia, live music, and drag events.
The cascades are POURING right now and the crocuses are coming up. Overall it's lovely out here.
