Whether you're a cat person or not, you have to admit that this is cute. Meet Nimbus. He's a gray shorthair kitty who happens to live over 6,280 feet above sea level at New Hampshire's Mount Washington Observatory. This WMUR video explains that Nimbus was adopted from the Conway Area...

A circus coming right to South Portland, Maine, right in the middle of our only shopping mall parking lot? SIGN ME UP. Filled with magic, daring acrobats swirling around in the sky, and unique treats for your little ones (or yourself, let's be honest), The Flip Circus is in Maine for this weekend only: June 1 -June 5.

How on earth do you combine the love of the ocean with a love for any scent that reminds you of the ocean?. This is the story of Rachel, who decided to drop the hectic health care and academia lifestyles to embrace what she really cares about. This is the...

In the interest of being transparent, I would just like to come out as someone who is not super into the Harry Potter franchise. I am not against it by any means! I get the appeal! I read the first few books and know the basics; Voldemort, Hagrid, Professor Snape, Quidditch, see? I get it! 10 points for Gryffindor!

Firstly, we have to congratulate the University of Maine's first America East Championship in 12 years, as they make their way to the NCAA regionals. As our very own Black Bears are heading to Miami to play, a company by the name of Mark Light Shakes has taken this as an opportunity to create a very interesting treat.

I’ve never been shy about my love of underrated New Hampshire beaches. I’m torn, though, about highlighting “secret” or “hidden” beaches in the Granite State. On one hand, it could lead to an appreciation of history, such as the one that followed an amazing discovery at a beach in Rye. On the other, it could lead to too many people showing up and trashing the place, as was the case at a beach in Massachusetts (where alcohol is no longer welcome).

Thanks in no small part to our Camp Out Hunger food drive, we have all learned a lot about food insecurity in Maine over the last few years. As we met people and learned their stories one thing became very clear. Our children were the ones that suffered most from food insecurity. We really did hear some tragic stories involving infants, toddlers, and elementary aged kids.

I recently booked a trip to St. Augustine, Florida, for a winter getaway, knowing it is the oldest town in America. This made me question where our New England towns are on the list of oldest in the country. We would think Boston would be near the top, but Boston...

A common occurrence at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour shows has been well-timed proposals during her performance of Fearless hit "Love Story," when she sings, "He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said 'Marry me, Juliet.'" But one couple's engagement is being lightly roasted on TikTok due...

This feels like it'd probably be the worst case scenario. Most of us at some point almost every day, have to deal with being stuck behind a bus, or just having to be on the road during bus hours in general. It can be a monster pain and feel like you're going nowhere fast. But every now and then, you get that wing nut who just decides they're above the law and whizz right past a bus.

While recently visiting Portland, Maine, I went into a vintage store called Madelyn's, which just opened. It was a cool store with unique items like vintage t-shirts, so while checking out, I started chatting with the cashier. He was saying how the shop recently opened, and how busy Market Street is.

Lizzo says she's thinking about "quitting" music due to the fatphobic hate she receives online. In a series of tweets posted Wednesday (May 31), the "About Damn Time" singer addressed the onslaught of criticism, body-shaming and fatphobia she receives on the daily. "I JUST logged on and the app and...

It seemed like an ordinary day for everyone one summer day last August at Canobie Lake Park in Salem, New Hampshire. But it got flipped upside down right at the entrance because of a Red Sox legend. They say sometimes it's not great to meet your heroes. And while there...

Did you know that New Hampshire has over 800 lakes and 19,000 miles of rivers and streams, according to the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services? That's a whole. Living in New Hampshire, we're really lucky when it comes to the gorgeous scenery around us. From mountains to rivers, beaches, forests, and oceans, we've got it all, and tourists love coming here to experience our beautiful state firsthand.

Do you remember when every little town in New England had its own children's clothing store? It may have been part of a larger store, but somehow we'd always manage to get our clothes from our local store rather than the big city. Now, with so many options online, where...

The statistic is staggering. Almost 2 million accidents last year were caused by deer. Most accidents involving animals, especially deer, occur in November and December, which is deer mating season, but drivers need to be aware year round for animals dodging out in the road, or onto the highways. Maine...

A while back, a dude named Tom Jones was on a hike in Hudson, New Hampshire, when he came across something a little peculiar. It appeared to be a boot-shaped little house. Now, that's something you don't see everyday! He posted the photo on the U Local New Hampshire Facebook page with the caption "You find the weirdest things while hiking in NH lol"

You'll hear a lot of people in Maine admit that there's not too much to do in or around the Portland area that doesn't eventually involve going to a bar. So, when you can combine an activity WITH a bar, and still call it a dive bar, it seems like a you've just discovered a hidden gem.

Yes, I saw you waving your arms in my rear-view while dangerously close to my bumper and I don't care. I don't know why you're angry at me because I was doing 5 miles over the speed limit and you couldn't get by me. If anyone should be angry it should be me, because you were so close to my car that I couldn't even see your tires.

About 300 million years ago, insects were scales larger than they are today: a shudder-inducing thought for anyone with entomophobia. Griffinflies, for instance, were massive dragonflies with wingspans reaching 28 inches. Insects were able to reach gargantuan sizes largely because the earth's atmosphere was rich in oxygen in prehistoric times. Since then, as oxygen levels have decreased, insects' air pipes have shrunk to adapt, and their bodies along with them.
