  1. Definitely color showing up here. Hard to capture in photos but about 25% of trees have some red in them. Took this today from my beach area looking towards the ski slopes (if you squint you can see the new gondola)
  2. Hard to take good pictures of it (especially while driving) but change is well under way here
  3. Very nice! Mine are still budding. I posted last week how there were no lupines at the Lupine Festival in Sugar Hill this year. Kinda sad, it's very pictoresque but it was nothing but green lawns this year.
  4. A word of caution. Tried that a few years ago when I first bought my current house and it was a disaster. Granted I live in snowland and my driveway is a quarter of a mile long, but even with weights and chain the JD125 we have would slip and get stuck all the time. Driveway is flat. Then one time we got an inch and a half of sleet and it couldn't do anything to it at all. That was the final straw (and happened on like day 85 of the 90 day return policy). Took it back to Lowes and got a plow.
  5. It's been pounding all day here. Unexpected
  6. I hope SNE gets buried. Not only do they deserve it after what they've endured this season, but this is the time of the year where people quickly stop thinking about skiing if they don't see snow. And the more they think about skiing the more they come up and the better we do in the tourism industry. And I like making money.
  7. Over 36” on the ground. That snowflake thingie is the top of my stake
  8. Thanks - never thought of that. Downloading a free one right now, thanks for the tip!
  9. Same here. How do you get an alarm on your phone?
  10. That's exactly how it was happening! I need to start paying attention to the sky, I didn't realize it was so common...
  11. Weird that this thread is dead but just saw northern lights over Bartlett for the first time tonight. Faint greenish glow, pulsing between weaker and stronger. Very cool.
  12. From Winchester/Arlington Heights area. Glad to have the forum back!
