Hampstead NH Holiday Parade 2008

Sorry this is so late but we still don’t have power eight days after the Ice Storm hit us. I don’t understand how come and why in this day and age it could take so long to restore power!

On Sunday December 14th The 2008 Hampstead NH town Christmas parade went off without a hitch and considering that the majority of the town residents were still without power I was surprised and pleased to see the parade. It has ended up being the only bright spot in a long cold miserable weather related week.

Usually the street along the parade route is lined with people this year however the crowds were small but the spirit was huge.  It was also Chief Chip Hastings last parade as fire chief since he is retiring in January.

Where I stood near the center of town near my office the small crowd was vocal and very appreciative.  Many who stood in the cold waiting for the parade had no power or heat at home but like myself enjoyed the short holiday respite. After three days without power (at that point) I know I enjoyed the break.

Happy retirement Chief Chip and Happy Holidays to allmay the power soon be restored to all!
