'13 was a lot of fun in Boston, but I knew I was missing something historic when that band pivoted over CT. My folks were stranded for days until backhoes dug them out.
Ha, I still remember waking up after the first sloppy storm and seeing the overnight Euro had come around and absolutely mauled us. Soon after, everything else fell into place. That was special.
Leaf cleanup is more or less complete. I'll run the mower over the lawn one more time next weekend until the gas runs out, then it's time to wait for snow.
I'm crazy about keeping the snow in my yard pristine and always have been. When I was a kid, I used to get pissed at my little brother when he wanted to romp around in the new snow.
You know how you hear about how the average person will spend X weeks doing some mundane task over the course of their life? I wonder how big a slice of Kevin's pie chart will be devoted to keeping his lawn pristine. Gotta be a solid year or two.
That was fun. Cool clouds, violet vivid lightning, some good roaring gusts carrying the remaining leaves and about a minute of pea-sized hail. Not bad for mid-November!
