Walked our course with the new owner and new pro today showing them around. Other than brutal wind and sub-40° temps, it was gorgeous. Unfortunately I am no longer in the position of being able to offer free golf to people or the invite would have been there. Here is a link to our, soon to be their website. https://www.northfieldcountryclub.com/

If only I could make the drive

The views of the Spine and the Worcester Range from 89 were spectacular today. I wish I could have taken a picture

Wish we had the middle finger emoji to respond to posts like these.

Other than a few oddballs, I think most of us truly like seasons in season. I like variability, for the most part so I wouldn't want three straight months of HHH but it can be enjoyable. For the record, I wouldn't want year round winter either.

This is Exit 7 on I-89 on the hill above Montpelier

Beautiful morning. As much as I want warmer days, you can’t deny the beauty of a snow covered landscape lit up by sunshine.

At least you saw 60. Our high was 52 and now we have 2” on the ground.

Nearly 2” on this lovely Mayuary evening.

For once, I stand with Dews.

Pounding snow. Trees covered, ground covered, road covered. Yay?

It says the Silverado 1500 has a payload of 1750 lbs minimum. A yard of dirt weighs 1080 lbs according to the Google

Yes, that looks about right judging by what's outside my window

MPV was 52° around 1:00 33° now

I'm ruing the fact that by next November/December 2020 will have used up all of it's snow allotment

It's made it to the east now

Nothing compared to the look on my wife's face when she looked out the window.

I'm at 1250'. Better not creep any closer to me, I'm done for the year

One of the all time greats

If all goes according to plan (fingers crossed and wood knocked on) by the end of this week the 93 year old, member owned golf course that I have been president of for the last 2 and a half years will be sold to a local person who will keep it a golf course. The new owner has a sports camp up the road and the course will enable him to increase his golf program and allow the course to remain a community asset. There have been many sleepless nights and heartburn inducing days as we’ve tried everything to keep it running and I know my already sketchy game has suffered because of the stress of running the place has put me under. The deal is scheduled to close Thursday and the new owner wants to open for play Saturday. We really did not expect to open for play this season so getting it ready for play is going to require a major push this week. For the first time in a while, I see a light at the end of the long, dark tunnel we’ve been traveling through. Maybe I can really begin to enjoy golf again.

Blowin’ the COVID away.

Lol, the dog is like WTF?

It’s more removing the flag stick that is the issue

Ended up with 5”
