    Keystone was for exports anyway... shale sands --- refineries
  2. HoarfrostHubb
    Yeah... it was like a switch was flipped.

    We were able to secure the same number of gallons of heating oil as the previous year for only about $16 per month more than the previous season (which wasn't bad). The mild temps this autumn will help as well for my house

    Heating oil prices went way low in March of 2020. The others not so much

    The fuel oil one is interesting, because the price of oil cratered at the start of the pandemic. I don't know the other energy types, but I assume it is the same. Obviously it is costing a lot more vs 2020, but 2020 was a lot less than 2019, 2018, etc. You have to go back to the late 1990s to find similar prices when adjusted for inflation.

    Regarding the truck drivers... the shortage was starting before the pandemic. I recall reading articles about a looming shortage due to retirements and not being able to replace them, several years ago. The pandemic sped that up quite a bit.

    We can't find janitors, my building is short a few. But the city pays those poor folks a terribly low wage. Not $22 an hour by a long shot.
  8. HoarfrostHubb
    Yeah. I saw Fish mention something like that. Hope it works out

    Too bad Saturday/Sat night will be rainy. A bunch of outdoor stuff going on

    Full suck

    My classroom was a bit tepid this afternoon. Window open as much as I can and the heater was blasting. So dumb.

    Also, due to a later than normal switch of the old Fall Back with the clocks, sunrise on Nov 6 will be something like 7:25AM. Wheeee

    Light

    I had but didn’t see any reports out of NH
  15. HoarfrostHubb
    What a week upcoming
  16. HoarfrostHubb
    Nope. Not in her town at least. I don’t know of any towns near me that do that
  17. HoarfrostHubb
    That’s what her old guy did. He had a big truck with a big on the back and would vac em up after blowing them to the street.

    One thing that sucks this year is we might have to clear leaves at my mother-in-law’s house. The guy who used to do it is all done (retired) and we have had trouble finding someone. There is no place to put the leaves. My departed father in law used to haul them miles away. I ain’t doing that.

    This drizzle isn’t making my day
  20. HoarfrostHubb
    The leaf blower I’m going to switch to has a noise level of less than/equal to 65 db which is the equivalent to laughter.
  21. HoarfrostHubb
    My electric mower is super quiet. I was shocked how quiet it was. I have a corded leaf blower but will be getting the battery powered one soon that used the same battery as my mower
  22. HoarfrostHubb
    Yeah…I wanted to pull over and take a few but couldn’t.
  23. HoarfrostHubb
    Oaks are so lame. They eventually go brown and then just sit on the branches until November.
  24. HoarfrostHubb
    Not peak here of course but really starting to pop. The sky this evening in Barre MA with the foliage was breathtaking. Sorry no pics

    Fook the 4 wheelers that blast through the off limits DCR land that abuts my house. No one cares... I really don't mind them passing at a normal pace through, but why the need to rev the engines for no reason...
