We've gone 32°, 27°, 27°, 26°, 28° for lows since last Friday. This rest of this week into the weekend looks like it will be textbook Indian Summer weather.

Didn’t hotels get the go ahead to rent 100% of their room and bar seating can start up again, with space between seats?

I think I have a picture of your subdivision

I can't wait for the Masters and to see what the course looks like in a different season.

27°/25°

Hope he brings a lot of quarters.

Ice is too thin to get the shanties out yet.

Burning the dust off the baseboard is like blowing the mice out of the snow guns at the ski areas. Just prepping for winter.

Welcome to NNE. Nice area, a little further up 100 to Eden and you might have the snow prize.

41°/28° at MPV. The wind has finally gone calm. It was 40° on the car thermo.

54°/31° May turn on the heat for the first time tonight.

Winged Foot is starting show it's true nature. From 20 players under par at the end of round 1 to only 5 now. JT and Rory going backwards. Patrick Reed playing well, I hope that doesn't hold up.

Diamond Pond is crazy for snow. They have the annual Snodeo there where all the snowmobile manufacturers bring their new models for test rides. That is near where The Balsams is too so if they ever manage to build that resort out there will be plenty of snow.

Sorry, I'll delete

Alright, Phil needs to lose the glasses.

Or maybe that's the hotel he thinks they should stay in while they're in CT.

I'm surprised that someone built a house like that and then only had a dug well. We had one when I was growing up. It went dry one summer, 84 or 85. That truly sucked.

I like the Open this time of year. So much better than players battling heat stroke and green getting fried to a crisp. September golf is so underrated. It seems like people just put away the clubs after Labor Day.

I don't want him jinxing winter by being completely prepared. If he puts that much $$ into getting ready for winter it will just be dud. I propose that he not even buy a snow shovel. At most he should get one of those electric, single stage snowblowers.

Close to snowmobile trails?

Was 47° on the car thermo when I left the golf course. Put on a pullover for the last few holes.

Up until 2-3 years ago, my oil fired boiler provided our domestic hot water too so it was on all the time. When we went to the hybrid heat pump/electric hot water heater I figured I would turn the boiler completely off during the warm months since we didn't need heat. That was a mistake. The seals in the boiler dried out and leaked all over the floor. At first I thought something broke and I would need to put in a new boiler but the repair guy told me to try turning it on so that water would circulate. That worked, no more leaking. I turn the thermostat off in the summer and the boiler only comes on to keep the small amount of water in the jacket at temp.

Still not a true Vermonter. My heat is completely turned off still. No heat on until skim ice forms on puddles! I did make a concession and close the windows. Last night was such a comfortable sleeping night I slept straight through until 7:40.
