Vaccine makers getting monkey hammered this morning.  PFE who can't produce a vaccine has a pill that has a ton of side effects.

Only things I've noted, and less(but not zero) for bucks than does, are heavy rain and 60+ temps.  The first cancels the critters' hearing and smelling, the 2nd keeps them in the evergreens during the day rather than be out in the warm sun with their winter overcoats.  High winds make the deer jumpy but I don't think it inhibits their plans much.

A monster buck got shot in my town Saturday broad daylight. Warm temps and windy. 

Deer don't care about temps. Moon says it's time to get it on.  Full rut. 

Internet and cable still toast in Duxbury.  Spotty pockets of cell service around town. 

Power back on for us in destructionbury (copyright Scott Nogueira)

I'm not being melodramatic when I say Duxbury got absolutely destroyed. It's a complete warzone. No power and no internet.  0G cell service. They say tomorrow but there's no way power's being restored with another noreaster coming. Many streets still impassable. A lot of powerlines wrapped around trees so everyone is afraid to cut them until the pros get here.

Drove to Pembroke to get cell service.  Cell towers are toast 

Just got internet at my parents. Duxbury is armageddon. Complete extinction event for white pines and oaks.   

Logan landing was meh


.

Taking off from Dublin now. 4pm landing in Logan. Should be special.


.

Flying in from Ireland tomorrow afternoon. 65 knots on my app. Should be a good landing

Watching on DVR now, see if can hold the lead, home crowd fans always obnoxious for this, especially with no euro fans because of COVID travel limitations 

My sister and brother in law are there today.  The videos they have been sending are epic.  The crowd is bonkers. 

Boy scout camp out at camp squanto in Plymouth currently posting from inside a tent. Wtf. If we didn't get 3" of rain last night I'd be surprised. Complete monsoon.

It's everywhere.  We managed to grab one of the last 2021 Lexus NX 300h off the lot last month.  It had literally just arrived and hadn't even been stripped and prepped for sale before we jumped on it.

Been looking for a used SUV.  Prices are ridiculous. 

Stole the older son out of school today, going tuna fishing

Dethatching the fairways today. Aerate and overseed tomorrow

I flew Aer Lingus thru Dublin.  Ireland requires proof of vaccination but not proof of a negative covid test before travel.  England required both plus I had to do a test within two days of arrival which I did at the Manchester Airport after landing.  Already go the negative test result.  Both required passenger locator forms, but not a big deal.  More hoops than before covid, but in the end not a big deal.  Surprised how few are wearing masks over here, but the vaccination rate is higher than the US.  Great to be back here.  Tomorrow is my first Manchester City match since before Covid.  Can't wait!

What airline are you flying?  Aer Lingus made things pretty easy.

Thanks for the info. Aer Lingus

Depending upon seed mix used, it could be 5-10 days.

He used Lesco Metro and I supplemented with Lesco Parks mix. 

Hydroseeded an area yesterday. How long before this germinates?  This is a precarious hill where if I get 3" of rain it's going to run to the bottom.
