What's in a name? Not necessarily the best things, until recently anyway. These Massachusetts landmarks are among 650 nationwide that underwent name changes over the past year. These name changes are due to the federal efforts from U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland to follow through on removing the derogatory term 'squaw' from being used. In Massachusetts, there are five landmarks that recently had their name changed. And they are spots that you definitely want to see before Summer is over!
Massachusetts can certainly get its fair share of precipitation throughout any given season. And lately, it seems like the rain has been coming in droves. Whether it's rain, snow, sleet, hail, or some bizarre wintry mix, we have seen it all on a yearly basis in the New England region. But in Massachusetts, what are the areas that get the most precipitation? What are the wettest counties in the Bay State?
In case you haven't noticed recently, it is HOT in Massachusetts right now. Sure, it could be hotter. But, up until this point during this Summer, we have just experienced our hottest week of the season. Of course, with the warmer temperatures, there is plenty of exploring one might set out to do throughout the Bay State during the Summer. And maybe one of those spots you will find yourself exploring is the tallest waterfall throughout all of Massachusetts.

Massachusetts town names tend to have a certain way about them. Usually, as soon as we hear and/or read the name of a town, even if we don't know where it is, we know if that is a town in the Bay State. It just so happens that if you were to mention any town that end with 'ham', there is a good chance that town exists in Massachusetts given the fact that there are 19 of them.
