Just had a quick half inch. Up to .58 now

Wow. I was in Waterbury at the office today and they had showers on and off most of the afternoon but nowhere near that much. Only .07 here.

Depends on what I’m doing. Working on trails, it jeans. I don’t need ticks or scratched up legs from brush. Playing golf or doing light yard work and it’s the outfit you described.

Last nights picture was the moon outside our hotel room, this morning it’s a loon. Not sure if you can see it but he had a fish in his mouth.

Island Pond tonight. Was much more red when it started rising.

I’m up in Island Pond. The view from our room is pretty seeet tonight.

I was really surprised at how good Jack Russell still sounds. Of course he walked to the stage with a cane and basically sat on a stool and didn't move around much. His band was pretty meh but his voice was strong. Ironically, the other Great White was playing the same night in Lancaster, NH. They probably have the better musicians but weaker lead singer. Warrant was surprisingly good. I was never a huge fan but I can't fault their show. The band was really tight, the sound system top notch and the showmanship was strong. Best show of the night. Dokken was a huge disappointment. Don Dokken can't sing and could barely move around the stage. The sound guys were awful, the guitar was mixed too low and the bass was mixed way too high. George Lynch came on for three songs at the end of the set and while he can still shred, it was not enough to save any shred of respectability. People were streaming out after just a couple of songs.

We put our panels in after the roof was redone. When they got here they said they had been worried because the roof had looked pretty poor from the satellite images they had seen. Obviously Google earth was out of date.

Jay Peak sold. https://vtdigger.org/2022/09/08/pacific-group-resorts-makes-highest-bid-for-jay-peak-moves-toward-closing-on-purchase/

When we had to replace the water heater a few years ago, we went with a hybrid. It uses a heat pump along with a standard element to heat the water. The bonus is that the heat pump also acts as a dehumidifier.

Nothing here, just cloudy and cool. 1.49" for the event

How do you think Dendrite pays for his chicken and tree fetishes? He sells pears to Harry and David.

Looks like 1.48” will be it. Foliage season saved!

Below normal temps too, if I'm remembering correctly. Anyway, back to this one. Up to 1.41" and still raining.

Up to 1.41" here. Looking at the predictions on my phone app, I thought it would be about half that much. It's a good drink for those who need it. Just means I'm going to have to mow more.

1.27" so not bad here on the fringe.

Neither is TauntonBlizzard, he's only had 3" with this one

Gradient winter incoming?

Creeping our way towards an inch. .37 today and .55 yesterday for a total of .92.

.33 here today. Most of the time it was light. Just enough to keep me from going to the golf course.

I went to the fair today too. We were there to see some 80’s bands. Great White and Warrant were actually pretty good. Dokken, not so much lol.

Walden is nice. Gets lots of snow.

My BIL & SIL are renting a camp on Joe’s Pond in Danville, VT this week. Went up to visit this afternoon. Loons floating out front. The picture isn’t that great but it shows how nice the day was. Also took a pontoon ride with their beagle, Gage.

We rescued our cat when he was like 9-10 weeks old. Tried hard to make him an indoor cat but he just never took to it. We finally made peace with the fact that at some point he probably just won’t come back. He’s gotten beaten pretty good by something twice. One time, he had a big puncture on one side of his spine and three more on the other. I think a hawk or owl grabbed him but he got loose. I don’t know how he made it back to the house. That adventure cost us almost $2000. He’s 10 or 11 now. Oh and we don’t have mice issues around the house.

This sums it up for me too. I’ve always been a player guy in these sports labor disputes. Maybe the PGA needs to make some changes but the way LIV is currently set up holds no appeal to me.
