Maybe invest in a good set of window shades? Direct sun in the summer is not ideal, but it’s nice in the winter.

LOL. My coworkers in PHX would get a kick out of this post.

Maniacs living on the edge!

I feel like it boils down to bad luck. I read it was “only” a 65 person wedding. That’s not that big, albeit more than the 50 person allowance for indoor events in ME. I guess all it takes is a super spreader or two and then the dominoes fall where they may. Sad story.

Come on Fish. *Affect

Taken on my run...running for cover.

56F for the low here this morning. We step down.

Didn’t BOS hit 101F during the peak of that heat wave?

The rich and privileged have made Boston their playground. It’s a beautiful world class city. Then head over to Roxbury...

Yep. Good on them to use that oil wealth to fund clean energy initiatives though.

We’re readying ourselves for balmy sou’easter after sou’easter this winter. Cutter city. Rains to Maine!

You're about 90 days (or less) away from real winter settling in up there. Enjoy it!

It’s not that cheap either in Burlington proper. I interviewed for a job in Williston several years ago and was shocked at how expensive real estate was up there. Basically a removed suburb of Boston.

Are we about to Simon Cowell the summer heat/humidity?

Let’s support our teachers, not vilify them. If people are really considering slashing teacher pay right now when we most need them at the top of their game, I fear for our future.

Seems like we’ve been doing 90s easily right into the first and second weeks of Sept recently.

We’re doing the Borax method right now. Day 2.

Young ones before they fluff out? It would be really late for them.

Gypsy moth caterpillars. So many dead oaks here because of those.

He’s on vaca I think. We’ll let it slide...this time.

6 years working at a liquor store for me. Man, the people and the stories!

Nothing wrong with seeing how others live. I moved to VA for a job a few years ago. Hated it and moved back a year later. The experience made me appreciate all the things that Mass does right.

Exactly. It's a lose-lose for them. Locally, I think most public leaders have done a very good job, given the tough decisions to be made.

I'm torn. I'm all for businesses being able to operate and for their owners/employees to earn a living. However, that needs to be balanced with the general welfare of the public. It's a delicate balance act - not one that I would want to do. If a group of people do something stupid, that's their prerogative - usually. Now, when people do stupid things, it has the potential to affect each and every one of us. I don't know much more beyond that picture of the cruise with all of the passengers cramped together on the top deck. At the very least, the company should have known that that image would generate bad PR. Now it suffers the consequences of that oversight.

Do you support unions? That’s one of the benefits...
