Sometimes stuff is just worth celebrating in a five-column format, like Bishop Brady’s participation in community service earlier this month. Bishop Brady students and faculty participated in their second annual community service day, providing 900 hours of service to more than 20 local non-profit organizations. The community day is in addition to the more than 8,600 service hours that the students provide each year. That’s a lot of hours for the betterment of our city. A special thank you to Brady’s sponsors for the day: Bittware Inc., Constantly Pizza, Kentek Corp., Patsy’s Leasing Corp., and Vermette Orthodontics.

Here we have Maralyn Doyle with the ‘Insider’ at Regensburg Cathedral in Germany during a trip last December. We’ve obviously been moving as slow as that stone bishop guy since it took us four months to throw the picture in the paper. Also, pretty sure he’s napping.

The Concord Public Library celebrated 160 years of existence last week with a little party during National Library Week. There was a delicious cake (we had a piece), as well as other snacks and drinks. We sure do hope we hang around long enough to see our big 160 one day – purely for the chance to eat a cake that size.

Try as it might, winter didn’t croak us, so our reward is these crocuses, photographed by our friends @concordnhlibrary. Worst pun ever? We’re sure we’ve created worse. Either way, maybe instead of making fun of our ugly humor you should just take in these lovely flowers.

This vehicle made in the Abbott & Downing yard for Concord Steam Laundry represents the era when car makers figured it would totally be safe to not put any sort of anything on either side of the driver or some kind of shield in front of him. If the driver were a football player, this car would be his leather helmet. Thankfully they’ve made tremendous strides in safety standards since then – unless you’re a UPS driver. Then you still have no doors and you have to wear those awful brown shorts. Thanks to reader Earl Burroughs for the photo.

Concord is celebrating a pretty important birthday this year, so we figured we’d give it a present – a picture from when it was way younger. Seriously, who among us wouldn’t like to look 50 years younger? Definitely not that lady in the back of the Concord Coach on this poster from the city’s Bicentennial celebration. She could use a lesson or two in packing light (that’s a lot of stuff to have bouncing around on the roof) and looking less like the witch from the Wizard of Oz. And who knew the Concord Coach had such a sweet slogan! Thanks to reader Earl Burroughs for the photo.

This isn’t a photo from that time we woke up at a wildlife preserve after a particularly crazy Saturday night and just hung out there for a couple of weeks. Is it? That’s all a little foggy. We’re pretty sure this is a picture from Instagram user @boudreaujr, who said he pulled over to capture this barred owl on Hutchins Street right here in our fair city. Great snap, @boudreaujr!

We’re reporing live from the first ever Concordiapolis 500, where horses and buggies are pitted against trolley cars in a furious race down Main Street! Place your bets! Of course, the smart money is on us having made the whole thing up. Thanks to reader Earl Burroughs for this picture, which was actually taken near Pleasant Street, looking north. We’re not entirely sure of the time frame, but it’s fair to say “not recently.”

Eleanor Broussard made this sweet painting for Intown Concord’s recent Locally Famous Art Auction, featuring Zoe & Co. Professional Bra Fitters (where she works) in a place of prominence. And guess what? Zoe & Co. bought the painting at the auction, and it’s now hanging in the store. We just love happy endings ::sniff::

Finding a forever home – Tue, 31 Mar 2015

The Audubon held a Spring on the Wing event last weekend, complete with a cake baking contest, which we believe should be part of every local event (also, we’re available as taste testers/judges. Like, whenever.) Anyway, Conor Fitzgerald, son of “Monitor” advertising celebrity Candace Fitzgerald, entered this bad boy and came home with second place in the Family category. The nest is made of Chinese Lo Mein noodles with melted marshmallows, a little vanilla and some cadbury mini eggs inside (if only they really came from birds!) Candace did note that the bird is not edible. For all his good work, Conor walked away with a gift certificate to Gibson’s Bookstore. We know one book he doesn’t need to buy there: “Baking Bird Cakes for Dummies.” He’s already a pro!

The driver of this car was nice enough to roll the window down a little so this dog could be safe (take notes, everyone. That’s how it’s done). And the dog was nice enough to roll the window down a little more so everyone could peep his super puppy swag. Nothing in Concord is more chill than this dog right now. We can say that with utmost confidence. Thanks to @drewgrosvenor for posting the photo! We want to find your pictures, too – just tag us with #concordinsider when you post.

We’re all for bringing train travel back to Concord, but only if that stuff works. Looks like this go-round in August 1890 wasn’t so hot. This photo of a train wreck near Ferry Street crossing comes to us from reader Earl Burroughs, and features several bystanders looking not particularly surprised or worried that anything went wrong. And also looking super dapper in vests and coats and awesome hats.

Ruth “Bunny” Dodge turned 96 years young Friday afternoon, and celebrated like anyone else would – by dressing up like a bunny in the dining room at Havenwood. We met Bunny and her husband, Ralph “Cap” Dodge, a few years ago while learning about their shared wedding ceremony with Bunny’s sister. Here, Havenwood staffers Wendy Hardy, Cassey Greene and Sandy May share a moment with the birthday girl.

Around 1900, Concord’s famous Abbott and Downing Company liked to have all of its employees stand outside the South Main Street plant for a group photo. White it brought productivity to s screeching halt, at least we have this pic to show for it. Thanks to reader Earl Burroughs for sending it in.

We were going to include this in our snowbank scavenger hunt a few weeks ago, but never got around to it. Still, that’s a pretty cool whatever that is. We’d have hopped up there to take a ride around Concord, old-school style, but there’s never a team of oxen around when you need it.

These are the kinds of photos you wind up with when we’re stuck in sprinter, that weird void in the meterorological world where it’s kind of still winter but almost sort of spring. Also known as “when animals say hibernation shmibernation (in their cute little animal voices) and just start walking on snow. Either way, this little guy sure knows how to work the camera. Thankfully Instagram user @tkc2000 was there to catch the moment.

This photo gives us all a glimpse into the museum that honors Concord’s most famous residents that never had body parts from the shoulders down. It’s a select group, sure, but an accomplished one. We wouldn’t blame you if you thought it was the upper corridor in the New Hampshire Historical Building, though . . . they kind of look alike. Thanks to reader Earl Burroughs for the pic!

This picture from Instagram user @hayleymccartire is a pretty solid illustration of a simple economics lesson: Supply has clearly surpassed demand for the snow shopping demographic. So much so that entire carts are being abandoned, mid-quest!

At least all this snow is good for SOMETHING. Instagram user @girldogbike was whipping up Belgian white and needed a place to cool the wort. Boom – cooled. As a bonus, beer has been proven to make repeated snowstorms every two or three days exponentially more survivable. Have one for us, ladies!

This picture of the New Hampshire Highway Hotel comes to us from Randy John Cummings, and appears to showcase the largest hotel pool we’ve ever seen. Of course, room access via boat only may have been an unsustainable business model. And the lifeguard budget must have been insane!

The owner of this truck managed to pull off the difficult and rare jerk driver quadruple in one simple act – parking in parts of four different parking spaces at NHTI. It’s enough to earn a gesture in which four of said gesture maker’s fingers remain down. At least the owner cleaned all the snow out of the back of the truck before pulling in.

Instagram user @chellsearobbin said she loves “the contrast of brick buildings with snow,” which is a good thing, because we’d say it’s gonna be pretty contrasty for the next six or eight months or so. Us? We prefer the contrast of our pasty feet and miles of blue ocean water. Which, technically, we could still get pictures of at this time of year, as long as frostbite isn’t a thing we’re worried about (note: we’re worried about it).

We swiped this awesome photo of downtown Concord from Rich Woodfin on Facebook. Discussion in the comment thread seems to date it somewhere in the early 1950s. The celebrated Puritan Restaurant is visible in the background, in the building labeled Concord Commercial College, which is where we assume students went to learn about advertising. The Back to the Futurey vibe of the photo was overwhelming enough we spent 10 minutes searching the background for Marty McFly.
