We were in Concord visiting the Museum of NH History and stopped by the NH State House to look around inside. Just walking around looking at old paintings of Governors, checking out the legislator chambers, etc.
We walk by a Men’s restroom and Trevor, being a smartass, hits the handicap button that opens the heavy door.
It opens — and Governor John Lynch is washing his hands! Walking down the hall we get to talking and when he noticed my camera. He had an aid take a group photo in the Governor’s Reception room.
I love this little state!

First I’m mentioned in NY Times’ blog The Caucus in Richardson Keeps Up a Cheerful Pace
For his final stop of the night, Mr. Richardson’s S.U.V. convoy — noticeably smaller than those of the other candidates — pulled into the parking lot of the Cinemagic IMAX movie theater in Hooksett where he mingled with a small crowd in the lobby not far from the popcorn and soda machines.
Marc Nozell, 49, who lives in nearby Merrimack brought his three sons to meet Mr. Richardson even though Mr. Nozell has already decided to vote for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. A campaign aide snapped a photo of the four of them with the candidate.
As he walked out of the theater, Mr. Nozell was laughing. The aide had left one of his sons out of the picture, but he was still pleased that Mr. Richardson had time to pose with them. Though, he said, it might not bode well for his campaign.
“If you are a candidate you don’t want to be accessible at this point,” he said. “You want to be a rock star like Obama or Hillary.”
Griffin was standing right next to Richardson’s left. Here is the photo:
BTW, he got my age wrong.
And then today a photo in the online version of nytimes.com shows our entire family at the Hillary Primary party at Southern NH University.
All of my photos from last night’s Hillary Clinton Primary victory party are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marcn/sets/72157603677800683/

Wendy and I had lunch at the India Palace in Nashua and a few minutes after being seated a Democratic presidential candidate comes in and has lunch. Unaccompanied. Only in NH on primary day!
Anyone want to guess who it was?
I do have a photo of this person in my Flickr photostream.

Hillary Clinton @ Manchester Rally
Originally uploaded by marcn
Last night we took all the kids up to see the last Hillary Clinton rally before the Primary today.
They were all troopers, especially Emma who fell asleep during it.
Wendy was psyched that Hillary signed her homemade sign.
Hillary, Bill and Chelsea Clinton

Rudy Giuliani
Originally uploaded by marcn
I’m going to start hitting the Republican events — they are much more exciting.
At this evening’s Rudy event at the Nashua Elks’ club there was a Pro-Life protester who started yelling at him — “A vote for Rudy is a vote for Dead Babies” and “You have blood on your hands”. The crowd was Pro-Choice and kind of murmured over the protester. Spencer and I ran into the dude (see the complete photoset for a picture of him) and asked who *he* was supporting — Huckabee.
At the car there was a strange Pro-Life flyer from a mythical Smith 2008 candidate who has a “Negro Problem”. It is copyrighted by Randall Terry. I’ll scan it in later.

Yup, the office building known as ZKO and where I’ve spent the last 20 years working for DEC/Compaq/HP is no longer going to be where I park my butt during the day. I’ll be heading down to Marlboro, MA a few days a week starting sometime in 2008.
Here is what the Nashua Telegraph has to say in their newsblog section: HP to close Nashua site. The news traveled fast — their entry is dated 5:24pm today, just hours after the official announcement to employees.
Update: Wednesday full coverage in the Nashua Telegraph: HP to close Nashua site
I wonder when the new owners will take down the VMS-inspired Non-Paged Pool sign.
