  1. Yeah but I’d rather 50° and cloudy than 45° and rainy
  2. DIT has just chucked his Tandy across the room in a blind rage after the last few lawn posts.
  3. I love Hakkas but am really meh about studs. They only really work on ice or hard packed snow. They don't do anything in slush like this and could actually be worse on pavement.
  4. This snowfall puts me at 90" for the season, give or take an inch or two that I missed by not recording every trace. On the surface it looks like an ok winter but with all the cutters and melt downs it really struggled to reach a D. And to add insult to injury, my mailbox just became a casualty of this crappy winter.
  5. Not sure about surprised. I new we were on the line and could go either way. Probably disappointed is the closer reaction or maybe sadness and disgust for some.
  6. 3" here and 32°. Still snowing a little. Really fine grains that I thought were rain/mist until I went out to measure.
  7. Your logo looks like a bison. Almost like the Wyoming state flag.
  8. VT has something like 8000 miles of dirt roads vs. 6000 of paved roads. Also, the ground freezes deeper so it takes longer to thaw.
  9. That's what they do with Christmas trees
  10. Pretty soon it will be Sebago season for you instead of Quabbin.
  11. Before or after Russian troops decided to dig trenches in the radioactive ground?
  12. Yep. Just did 2 post dinner miles on the bike path. It’s finally clear if all snow and ice and with the lingering daylight, I can make and eat dinner and have time to clean up the dishes before going out for a walk.
  13. Really? I can relate to Smith’s shot on 12, Scheffler’s drive into the woods on 18 yesterday, Tiger finishing +17 and any number of missed short putts
  14. Not dumping but on and off snow showers here. 36°
  15. I’d try to travel to make but I’m afraid of the amount of mocking I’d take.
  16. Try living here. Have your daughter send you real estate listings for the Burlington area. Absurdly high is a relative term. Stuff isn't as expensive as it is in your area but salaries aren't either
  17. Of course they do have those SubAir systems that suck water out of the greens so they never get truly slow.
  18. It really isn't that simple though. In order to have a decent paved road, you have to have a good base that drains water. That requires a lot of excavation and bringing in the proper fill material. It gets really expensive and sometimes, it just can't be done because ledge or other physical limitations. Pavement can be more expensive to maintain too
  19. I read that this morning and it left me scratching my head. I guess at some point she panicked and made some bad decisions. I know the road, though I don't know exactly where she was. Although it's not a major thoroughfare its not the most isolated road either.
  20. Given his obvious talent, I think JT is disappointing. So many times he seems to disappear into the background at majors. As for Tiger, I did catch some highlights and like you said, all things considered, he looked good.
  21. Haven't been able to catch anything so far. Are the greens slow from the rain? That trips up some guys who are used to lightning speeds
