    "loved to death"

    This must be a slow local news cycle. I've been reading this same article for 40 years and Puffer's is still there and just fine. Yes, some money should be raised to spruce it up a bit and to keep paths from eroding, etc., but it's not like it's exactly running out of water.

    My wife and I enjoy a leisurely kayak paddle on this jewel hidden in North Amherst.

    Hey Ryan,
    Yeah that's what we all were doing there last night. And we had a ball.

    Now a kayak is on my list for Donna's upcoming birthday.

    One of the other great "hidden treasures" w/in Amherst lies just north of Puffer's Pond - try hiking Cushman Brook sometime with your kids...they'll love it! (and so will you)

    BTW - thanks for changing blog threads...that last one was getting waaayyy out of hand!

    Will do. Maybe this weekend.

    I try to blog the way I trained for national competitions: alternating days between heavy and not-so-heavy.

    "Loved to death"


    Sounds like a documentary about gay men.

    I have to say, as someone who has enjoyed Puffer's for 17 or so years now, THE BEAVERS HAVE TO GO!!!! They have caused far more destruction at Puffer's than people have in the last 5-8 years!!!
