This cool shot comes to us from Instagram user @wyo_not. Apparently, this pipe is located on an unmarked woods road off of West Parish Road. If you jump into it, you can skip to level 2, 3 or 4 (Note: do NOT try this at home unless you are playing Super Mario Brothers).

Forget about those boring old robins – it’s the traditional first goose of spring! Reader David Berliner sent us this pic of a goose that just moved in to town. He said the waterfowl was “honking like crazy” for a couple days until, lo and behold, his mate showed up! She was probably just putting on her beakstick.

This Instagram photo of the week comes to us from @calli0pe8. It’s, like, totally a metaphor for this winter and junk, you know? Because the turtle is, like, slow, and it’s carrying all the snow and it just won’t leave? Bonus: We’ve successfully created a metaphor using the word like. And they said it couldn’t be done (and shouldn’t, probably)!

A couple weeks back, we ran a classic Concord photo of downtown’s Masonic Block all gussied up for a parade. Reader DJ Annicchiarico of United Shoe Repair (housed in the self-same Masonic Block) hooked us up with this picture of the block after it was ravaged by a fire in 1962. The building was subsequently torn down and replaced with the buildings you see today. Thanks for the photo, DJ!
