PINKHAM NOTCH — Black fly season greetings to you and your favorite fellow victim, as they have come out in earnest these past few beautiful days of at long last spring here in the Mount Washington Valley.
Spring, as our cover story in today’s edition illustrates, is Tuckerman Time for many, and we’re not just talking about the great local brewing company, which has launched its outdoor summer music series, featuring the return of the Simon Crawford Band last night and continues today with the Mallett Brothers Band from 3-6 p.m. (Mike Malkin and Becca Deschenes are indoors at the Tasting Room on Sunday, also 3-6 p.m.).
