Someone who wanted to get in the picture lol. There were some work parties there. 

She took the first group shot of us, then jumped in while her colleague took the other.  We did the same for them (minus the photobombing)

...Cool Christmas week evening.

...Ray needed money.

Who’s the blonde Scooters all over? 

Be careful...The OT crowd is monitoring this thread.

Just a mere 30F degrees lower and this could have been white Christmas for all. Sh.it pattern with May temps FTL.

I will buy that.  We will be lucky to salvage Late January at this rate.

God save the ski resorts.

You can basically summarize like this… if the much anticipated and widely forecast in many circles pattern change to more favorable with snow chances and sufficient cold beginning Xmas week and for Jan and Feb is delayed or pushed back or doesn’t happen or whatever , this place is going to lose it. That includes snowless SNE all the way up to NNE where much of area outside  the Mtns sees the giant snow eraser Sunday night. There are a ton of posters( myself included) that are hoping and counting on it . Folks are already posting on eggshells. It had better happen or all hell will break loose. 

I've been checked out since late last season, and don't plan on checking back in anytime soon. 

I hope do for the sake of your own sanity that the pattern changes for you and that you see snow.  I know it will make you happy, and for that...

I am rooting for you.  I want you to smile, and be able to make snow angels, and drink hot chocolate with your family while gazing out into the winter wonderland beyond your walls.

For all of SNE.. and yes you 

It's pretty sad that I am partially looking forward to the winds that you tout.  normally I don't care.

Yeah it’s stein and anything we hope to come would be after. 

I'd rather Stein, than rainy.  No one wants their torchy holiday week, with burgers grilling, and hacky sack games a-flowing disrupted by rain.

Wednesday 12/20....Probably like 5 or 6.

I'm hoping to leave work a bit early (3 or so). Without traffic it's under 2 hours, but I will figure 2.5 for the time of day.

So is the house he's building lol, That will be the view from his second story bedroom.

Do you have any house pics to show?

I'm glad that some eastern weenies are grabbing some snow.  

Lucky for me I am content on not getting snow this year.  I have come to terms with winter rains sandwiched between bouts of cold, and an overall dreadful, incoming season.  Late May and early June can't come soon enough.  The only months I welcome are June, September and October

East of 2 rivers, where I am is a snow lovers curse.

Clown map over 2 weeks out. 
Stop.

...Sh.it came up that I have to tend to.  I had hoped it would not, but in the back of my mind had a feeling it might, and sure enough as of around 12:30 it did.  

...I am out for tomorrow.

Who is getting there at 2? @WinterWolf@Ginx snewx?

I know you're not asking, but I will be there later...after 4.  2 is too early for me.

Maybe we move to 12/20 Wednesday? Bruins are off that day and Celtics are out playing in Sacramento that night so we’d be in good shape. 

I agree with this.  When the garden is active the parking scene is definitely tougher.  Potential on-street parking can become $30  in a garage.  Plus the trains are full of yahoos. Monday and Wednesday there are no games in the Garden.

A true hero, Thom took 7 bullets to save the kids

 

 

This gave me goosebumps.

Somehow the times I've gone to Clarkes I've been lucky with the on street parking.  ...Which is a miracle especially this time of year, and that area of town.
