Ha! These pioneers will get nowhere in New Hampshire. It takes a minimum of 50 years of residence for the family to be accepted in the community, and even then only the children who grow up there will be accepted. The immigrants never will be. They can incorporate a town of their own, of course, maybe buy a farm in Contookuk and have a commune blast.

Farm? Commune? Nah. I just figured I'd ride my bike in for Weirs Beach *Bike Week* at Laconia, and sorta forget to ever leave. Maybe they just won't notice that I'm not one of the forever-there locals....
