I got several people checking in at the motel where I work, saying they had reservations at the Ramada that were canceled by the hotel. One gentleman said he was literally turned away at the desk (he had a guaranteed reservation and they are NEVER full) and told there is a "new owner/operator" and that they would not be able to rent rooms until at least Monday (1/18)!
Anybody know what's happening? Maybe they lost their Ramada franchise like all the others?
While on my way to the Community Thanksgiving Dinner today I saw a notice posted in the window of R&B Deli. It stated that R&B is NOT going to be closing in Sept 2010 and in fact has no plans to close at all, at any time.
And judging from the wording it's apparent the owner is not happy that someone posted a "closing" rumor about R&B on iBrat.
Sundried Tomato closing in February due to uncooperative landlord and R&B Deli closing in September due to family health issues. Is BABB and Chamber on the case?
Brattleboro and Dumerston residents report that left of landscaping rock has continued in spite of police investigation.
One Brattleboro resident reports consisent nightly thefts at around 2 in the morning which involve the use of hammers to break rocks from the the walls cement.
Rocks from town walls are also missing their stones
I just ran into Frankie & his wife Linda downtown and they told me they have been forced to CLOSE at their current location in the Harmony Lot. Landlord raised the rent so high and attached so many added expenses to the new lease (including fixing the roof!) that they cannot afford to stay there. Tell me how many tenants are required to fix the roof on their landlord's property ??
The area around Western Avenue especially has had people stealing many many stones from established stone walls on private property and town walls. A landscape firm truck has been seen around many of the thefts, and it is believed that they are stealing them to resell to people on jobs without having to buy them themselves from quarries etc.
I made this video for our blog and our guests (and potential guests) with the "haunted" sites I could find online, but I was hoping that some of you could help suggest other "haunted" or "spooky" sites near Brattleboro?
We are trying to put together a "haunted guide" for Halloween, which is typically a slow time for us and we would like to bring some more traffic to the inn and Brattleboro.
So other than those in the video, are there any other sites we can check out or share for Halloween?

While picking up some groceries the other day I was shocked and horrified to find myself confronted by two small monsters roaming the store.
When I first spotted them, they were near the Halloween candy, but they began following me and saying strange, monster phrases, such as "Trick or Treat." They were unchained.
I politely explained that Halloween was the day monsters could say that and expect humans to hand over candy, but the rest of the year it was the other way around. Humans got to say "trick or treat" to monsters and monsters had to give humans their candy.
The fictional Brattleboro Monorail Authority may be altering plans for local monorail development. Rather than use renewable energy to power the cars, the new design may use pedal-powered aerodynamic capsules.
At speeds up to 56 mph, the Brattleboro Pedal Monorail System could efficiently transport residents around the area on a network of monorail tracks.
