We've been scolded in the past for making jokes about how shady Worcester is. But, thanks to the tree-devouring Asian Longhorned Beetle, the Paris of the 80s is about to have a lot less shade.

Yeah, this is really too bad. There have been a few other infestations in the past. Its important to make sure you're not brining home any unwelcome guests on international flights.
PS: new restaurant in Worcester. The Abbey, on Main Street, a few blocks down from the court house. All local, fresh ingredients comprised to make cheese plates, salads, sandwiches, and the best pizza in the city. Not to mention the 200+ bottles of beer from all over the world. Same owner as The Dive Bar on Green Street. Cheers
