While covering various events in our area, I'm frequently among the last to arrive due to scheduling circumstances. This can make parking difficult. Though some of my last-minute finds have been questionable, I never park in handicapped and have never been towed. Sometimes I feel a bit proud when noticing a spot right by the entrance that others have overlooked. After the heavy snow last week, I stopped by Hospital Hill in Northampton for some sledding photos. Though the usual spots by the hill were parked to capacity, I thought this spot by the Smith College outdoor tennis courts was a safe bet.
