  1. It’s been so wet down there that the meaning of Stein has been reduced to referring to a partly sunny afternoon in SNE.
  2. There had been some noise about expanding the use of the existing power line ROWs in VT but that may have been to replace the Northern Pass that got shut down in NH. Not sure if that was just a pie in the sky dream but I would think it would be a better option if at all feasible.
  3. We use powerlines for a lot of trails already.
  4. It would work ok for our normal nickle and dime stuff. No blockbusters up here for sure though.
  5. Have these obs been run through AMWX quality control in Weymouth?
  6. Hydro-Quebec isn't all that green though. VT gets 50% of it's power from HQ. They have their own set of environmental problems. As for transmission lines, we have big corridors through the NEK and personally, I haven't heard a lot of complaints. https://vtdigger.org/2021/02/17/is-vermonts-use-of-hydroquebec-power-greenwashing/
  7. @Ginx snewx Thought of you when I read this article. The researcher is an environmental science major at URI. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/10/04/metro/using-seashells-sustainable-drinking-water-treatment/?rss_id=section_rss_full&s_campaign=bg:full:rss:section&et_rid=745095886&s_campaign=businessheadlines:newsletter
  8. Yep. It’s one of the more annoying things about living here. If it’s such a great place, why aren’t people proud to share it? Isn’t it a compliment when someone could choose just about anywhere to live and they choose your area?
  9. Pretty mild change down in the Upper Valley. Really noticeable as as you head down the hill towards exit 3.
  10. My favorite lake. I have permission from my wife to divorce her for anyone who comes along that takes an interest in me (lol, fat chance) who owns a home in Willoughby.
  11. I wish I could get a decent pic. Really has started to pop in places.
  12. Cloudy, drizzle and cool. Tried to play a few holes of golf during a brief interlude. Started up again by the 4th hole. Decided to head down to W. Leb was much different not 10 miles south. Was partly cloudy and Upper 60s when I got down here.
  13. Long shot but maybe kidney stones?
  14. That’s disappointing. I was hoping there was still a way for both the Sox and the Yankees to miss the playoffs.
  15. I wouldn’t get your hopes up. According to some, we won’t peak until Halloween.
  16. Yeah, today is crap. Yesterday though was nice to be out in the woods. Overcast but not raining and cool but not cold. I will say though that I like day like this once in a while just so I don’t feel guilty sitting on the couch watching football all day.
  17. You can also avoid the real touristy spots like Stowe. Part of the problem there is that you have a limited number of routes through the area. Other areas have lots more back roads to explore where you can sort of avoid crowds.
