This picture was taken last week in Concord NH. I had to go online to look up the name of this building. Last week, we drove to the capital just to see its golden dome. I couldn't find anything under the New Hampshire Legislature, and the NH Capital Building offered no results. Somewhere online tonight, I discovered it is called the New Hampshire House of Representatives or simply the State House.
How had I forgotten all those NH history lessons from grade school? I don't think I'd ever really committed many facts about it to memory. For example, the Legislature moved into the building in 1819 which makes it the oldest one still in use in the US. I don't think anybody ever told me it cost $82,000 to build.
Yet, I did recall one fun fact. The building is witness to the third largest legislature in the English-speaking world. Only the US Congress and the British Parliament have more members.
