In Springfield, MA until Monday for the Northeast Natural History Conference (NENHC). Anyone else?

Any locals wanna recommend a good greenspace to visit? (Edit) It looks like tomorrow, Friday is the only non-rainy day during my stay. I'm on the wait list for a field trip to Vermont in the afternoon, but I'll get out one way or another.

#Westhampton #Massachusetts, is that near you?

A friend is somewhat desperate for a new, temporary housing situation, post-break-up, ideally for now through the next 3-4 months.

Do you know of a potential low-cost living space (roommates? Spare room? sublet?) while they get back on their feet? They're good people, employed at a community-focused non-profit org, non-smoker, and are a member of a marginalized group.

@ me for details.
