  1. Feels like we’ve had this discussion before. There are some down in the Dover/Andover area around Mt.Snow that are pretty high and the Bolton Valley base lodge is at 2100’ so some of this condos are up there.
  2. Since the rule here is no masks for vaccinated people, it makes me wonder if the people still wearing are unvaccinated but we are near 80% with at least one shot up hers so it’s likely an over abundance of caution, I guess.
  3. Pretty much all mask and social distance requirements were dropped for vaccinated people in VT State office buildings last week. Went in 3 days this week. Was the first time I met 3 people we had hired since November in person.
  4. Lol. It’s like we forgot what reservations were traditionally for.
  5. That’s my buddy’s plan for the weekend, at least after he gets done with the work project he has in the morning. Sitting out on his deck tonight, I wish we had been burning some already.
  6. So I figured the storm Wednesday night was pretty meh, and it was, at least for me. 2 miles away across town at my friend’s house, it was a different story. Looks like they got hit with a microburst. Looks like 7 or 8 trees were knocked over including a couple of healthy looking maples snapped in half about 15’ above ground. Here are a couple of pics. p.s. I’m a pretty lame photographer.
  7. I remember when Heddy Topper was at its height of popularity and you could only get limited amounts, there was a lawyer in Burlington who tried to sell a case on Craig’s List. The Department of Liquor Control had a little talk with her. She was and maybe still is a staff attorney for the State board that regulates utilities. She also applied to work in my unit at the Attorney General’s Office. We did not hire her.
  8. That's a killer during any stretch of hot dry weather. A couple of the fairways at the golf course have that problem and we end up with dead spots most summers.
  9. My big decision will be if I wear shorts or pants for my 4:30 tee time.
  10. Got a severe warning but it seems like we've been fringed at most. A few gusts, a brief downpour, some thunder and lightning

    RIP James

    I'll be honest and say I had him on ignore because his posts were too much at times. On the other hand, I admired his passion and ability to ignore detractors and plow ahead. He was a part of what makes our community what it is. RIP James
  12. Black Adder! One of my favorites.
  13. You do know that is basically the entire point of this forum, don’t you? If a meteorologist who has gone to school and honed his craft through the years doesn’t think it’s going to snow in your back yard, they obviously don’t know what they’re talking about. If people start following your advice, AMWX is done.
  14. Maybe that's our ticket to fame and fortune, toecoin.
  15. That's what I love about this time of year too. I've often ended up holing out on the 18th with just enough light to see the flagstick.
  16. And here I thought nobody gets killed by dinosaurs Body of missing man found in Spanish dinosaur statue https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-57226774
  17. Masking requirements for fully vaccinated people have been dropped in state buildings. I'm actually in the office with 6 colleagues.
  18. Yeah, it’s over. It’s nice to have galleries back, I guess. I really enjoyed watching without idiots yelling after every shot though.
  19. Wow. This is quite a story. China ultramarathon: Severe weather kills 21 runners https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-57216601
  20. Here’s the problem with Phil in the lead, we have to endure god awful, sentimental pieces on his life. Ugh. Luckily, for a little while at least, I can just watch the EPL season wrap up.
  21. Not here. Need to flush the leftover heat out of the house.
