    [DIT]Welp, I guess all you guys who wanted cold and crappy are happy now. [DIT]

    It's just that Kevin didn't believe it, thought we'd be 70's. I prefer this weather to work outside in the yard to get everything done before it gets HH.,

    I bought one of those too.  Two new cars this year.  I reserved a hybrid Maverick when they first announced it since our  truck was 13 years old.  Took delivery in January.  Love the truck and my Mustang Mache.  You are exactly right, the hybrid only is FWD but the MME is all wheel drive.  So I guess between gas and electric prices we have insulated myself pretty good.  I hope so, as the pocketbook is pretty empty right now.  Between the two vehicles we will figure NNE winters out.  I made this You Tube video just after I drove it off the lot. for my nephew who loves cars.  

     

     

    I was going to reserve one last year but decided to keep my current vehicle at least another year.

    Officially moving to Templeton MA a half mile north of route 2 elevation 1,030 ft.. should do a little better in the snow department.. 

    You keep taking these baby steps moving a little more north each time, why don't you get it over with and move to Caribou.

    I believe so. Supposedly the oil life indicator calculates for driving habits etc etc.

    Just wondering if that is a tried and true measure. Like if I go by they indicator the car isn’t going to blow up lol

    I go 10k on mine with synthetic oil.

    My buddy went yesterday and is there today.  It looks brutal.  Letting the grass grow tall on the green-side edges of the bunkers for an added slap in the face.  The rough looks brutal.  Even the first cut of the rough is a club grabber and then they do a 2nd and 3rd cut, where your ball is basically out of view, and you're not even 10' from the edge of the fairway.  Greens at a 12 and tilted.  I love to watch it, but I would probably need therapy after playing the course.

    The greens are like pool tables

    I grew up in E Cambridge in the 70’s, with my neighborhood clan swinging an old shovel handle at a pink rubber ball and an abandoned brick building as our backstop.

    We used to tape one of those skinny yellow bats and play with a tennis ball. Fun times in the summer heat.

    I have never seen so many rabbits around here as there are this year. I must have seen 15 or more this morning during the 5 miles.. just hanging out in yards.

    Same here, my dog chases them around, hasn't caught one yet.

    Saw my first bobcat this afternoon walking the dog.   That was pretty cool.   My wife and daughter have seen them hanging out in our yard but this was a first for me

    I had one in my yard but it was night time so didn't get a good look, I saw one in Ware crossing the road and stopped and stared at me, beautiful animals.

    Sorry to hear Ginxy, dogs are amazing adapters to whatever life throws at them.  Their personality is always there.

    My lab had knee problems and hobbled around on 3 legs for a couple months before surgery about 2-3 weeks ago.  It’s crazy how fast she figured out how to run on 3 legs while one lamely hung there.

    Dogs are amazing, they don't sulk they just do what they have to, we can learn some lessons from dogs.

  10. Heading up to Lake Ontario this weekend for some King Salmon and Brown Trout, fishing's been good so far this year, maybe catch a couple Lakers too. Last two years haven't been very good so hopefully our luck changes this year.

    Sure it would have, it would have been short of the creek. Driver brings it into play. He hit driver on Saturday there, great, but it’s sunday and you have a one shot lead. Let’s not pull a Phil Mickelson at the US Open…and that’s exactly what happened. Terrible course management but somewhat expected from the inexperience. 

    Did you see the swing? Too tight on the grip, any club would have been off, that said I agree, should have used a 3 wood.

    Definitely early for a full opening. Even last summer some were closed certain days due to staffing issues. 

    Place in Maine we used to like to go to closed  permanently due to staffing.

    Some meltdowns but mostly Mito. I have no idea why his caddie didn’t hand him a 3w on the 18th tee. 

    With the swing he took I don't think it would have mattered what club he was using.

    To be fair BED was 96, but that’s wide open near the runways. 

    I was thinking of putting my other sensor in the sun to see the difference
