  1. @OceanStWx and @Arnold214 angrily chucking their Tandy's into Casco Bay after this comment.
  2. Man, I'm so close to some really good stuff.
  3. 3.5" here, which is better than I expected. Looks like some good stuff down in SVT. May need to head south to ride
  4. I guess Ray answered my question. Should have read on before asking.
  5. 3.5" when I went out and measured at 5:30. Much better than I was expecting
  6. Is that hole between Concord and Lawrence the pork pipe that Mekster was talking about?
  7. Snowing more here than I ever expected. Looks like 3” or so and still coming down nicely.
  8. I visited Anfield in 2017. As much as I dislike the Red Sox, FSG has done a great job with the Reds.
  9. We have made it up to 10°. The forecast high is 18°, that may be a tall order to get to.
  10. That was the first thing I noticed on that map
  11. Didn't get into the negative numbers here, 2° for the low
  12. No, GMP. I’ve always heard Washington Electric was bad for outages.
  13. We lost power for an hour or so. I’m only a quarter mile away from a substation so this was actually one of the longer outages we’ve had.
  14. In fact, I would say that anything less than that up here is downright unreasonable.
  15. I don’t mind it but I’d at least like to have kept the ground whitened a bit.
  16. When I trailer someplace to snowmobile I usually drive with my bibs on and boot up once we get where we are going. Driving in snow boots can be a pain.
  17. Lol. Nearly $40k per year for taxes. Nice place though.
  18. You know from living down there but Dorset is such old money. You can really feel it at the Field Club. I’ve always sort of though of Dorset as the old money and Manchester as the gauche, new money. Of course I live in the part of VT that is no money.
  19. Looks like it. I find the mention of a ski area in Dorset interesting along with the fact that Pabst packed it in and shuffled off down the road to Bromley.
  20. "Davidson investigated but never carried out two other lofty mountain projects. He abandoned the notion of a ski resort on Mt. Equinox after candid consultations with Fred Pabst of the Wisconsin beer-brewing family. In the early 1930s Pabst had started his own ski area in the Taconic range, a few miles north of equinox in east Dorset, but found the snowfall there insufficient; he then met with far more success at the higher, south facing Big Bromley in Peru, in the Green Mountains. Davidson also considered a cable-driven railroad between his mountaintop and the Southern Vermont Art Center. A funicular rail ride to the summit from the art center, the former Gertrude Devine Webster estate on an eastern flank of Equinox near Manchester, could have been a grand tourist attraction. But its cost would have been prohibitive in relation to revenues gained during the brief warm-weather Season. In any case, Davidson always "thought big" about his mountain." http://www.equinoxmountain.com/earlytimes_davidson_phd.php
