**TIMES TRAVELS.** Many years ago, we published a regular feature called ‘Who Reads The Times?’ in which local readers brought us on vacation and out-of-state subscribers sent photos of themselves enjoying the paper in far-flung locations. Contributor John Galluzzo recently packed his favorite reading material when he made the trip to upstate New York to visit the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. If you’re getting out of town in the near future, take us with you! Send photos to news@hulltimes.com.

Tears in the Parlor, a new book by Tommy Claffey, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc. Tears in the Parlor is a timepiece of a functionally dysfunctional family during the 1940s, in Boston. It›s based on real people, with true stories, and events. It is meant to be a lighthearted, sometimes comical overview of another era, the people who lived it, and many of the entities that were so prevalent then, and are now gone. With no intended moral message, Tears in the Parlor is simply meant to be entertaining via a visit back in time, and with a feeling of being part of the family.
