I can't imagine anyone pursuing that lifestyle and honestly believing it's going to work. The success rate must be sub 10%

I’d definitely question that landlord and ask why they told this person to do that. Besides that it could’ve just been a total dick move, maybe there’s some confusion as to who actually owe your property that you should clear up. Haha watching MUR now and it’s on 😂

Oh I remember your post thank you for the update. You live in Manchester right? I had the same issue when I lived in Portsmouth, not with a trailer, but with a guy who owned an Airbnb telling his Airbnb tenants they could park in a parking lot with spaces that were clearly labeled for the apartment building that was right there.

It was crazy because it was a car with Massachusetts plates in my Portsmouth New Hampshire parking space with the sign directly in front of the car that says resident parking only with the address that I lived at listed. The police wouldn’t help they said the landlord would have to have the car towed, it was on a weekend so the rental office was closed and the answering service was not helpful. I ended up sitting in my car and honking the horn until they came out to move their car. The second time that happened I looked up the tax bill and I tracked down the jerk who owned the place and I let him know that his tenants were parking in my parking space and also I believe at that time Airbnb was not even legal in Portsmouth so if it happened again I would be complaining to everyone in the city. It did not happen again.

Cool does that mean the profits generated go back to the users who paid for it as a dividend and cutting the state out of Cannon's annual profits?

I'd love to get a dividend back on my annual season pass, and give NH less money to waste on downstaters

Cannon has nothing to offer them, but it doesn't seem to stop them from coming and then complaining Cannon has nothing to offer.

Look at the plates on any given weekend, +65% are MA. No I haven't done a data study, but I would still throw money on that percentage being accurate, or even lower than the actual data would show.

This probably the driver behind my position on this.

The tram, though historic, is seriously showing it age. It is also very energy inefficient compared to other aerial lifts available, including modern versions of a jig back tram.

....but it can only move so many people so quick. Combined with a relatively low threshold for 'Selling out' day tickets (thanks to limited parking), makes Cannon so much more bearable than Loon.

Let the massholes have Loon. Keep to minimal snow removal on the notch and let Cannon remain the profitable respite it is for folk of NH to enjoy what NH has to offer without the constant inundation of folks who view us all as their servants first and backwards lessers second.

Considering the tram was already rebuilt, maybe we can get a modern/retro tram. New drives, upgraded towers, top bottom stations and slightly larger cabins based on the current form factor. Keeps the Tram vibe and aesthetic, but could carry a few more people and cost less in energy expense to run per operating hour to soften the increased amortization cost.

I think it is irrational to expect a tramway from the 30s will just last forever, but a high speed gondola would lead to an overcrowded experience for all. Making Cannon another Loon, Waterville, or the like where you get long lift lines and over crowded trails.
