  1. It took until September 8th... but we finally got our first W as a society in 2020. Keeping up with the Kardashians was finally cancelled after 20 hellish seasons.
  2. Why re seed? I’d imagine it’ll just come back with some rain and cooler temps?? Doesn’t grass mostly just go dormant, not flat out die? Id imagine you have a well, how will you keep up with watering with all these wells going dry? I’d be pretty afraid of wasting my precious water on the lawn.
  3. I know we had a tree discussion for my front yard a few weeks ago. I said I was going with another maple... but I reversed course on that after giving it some thought. I thought an absolutely huge tree among mostly smaller trees in everyone’s front yard may look silly. I ended up going with a flowering cherry “Kwanzan”... supposedly gets to 30 feet tall and 30 feet wide... bigger than everything else but not absurdly so.
  4. Installed a ring doorbell last week and today installed a ring security camera with a solar panel for the backyard... should have some good captures for snow season.
  5. Looks like bulk of the rain is going to miss this area.
  6. I’m 26 and have dabbled a few times looking into getting into electrical work. Being married, having a home, etc.... not sure how feasible it would be at this point.... by the time you go through the process you’re probably talking 32-33 years old, at least in my case
  7. I think a big piece of the puzzle this guy and many others are probably leaving out is these “helpers” are low wage, non benefited, often times under the table gigs. The honest answer would be. I can’t find any helpers right now that I could pay a shit wage to do absolute dog work all day and offer them no health benefits or vacation or sick time. most of those helper jobs are you show up and get paid (usually under the table) and if you don’t work, whatever the reason, you don’t get paid.
  8. I think this is just mostly a boomer talking point. I’m 26 and have worked since I was 14. And so have most of my peers. The biggest problem is that minimum wage hasn’t come close to following the curve of living expenses. A minimum wage job 20-30-40 years ago is a lot different than it is now.
  9. Restaurant business is a toss up in the best of times. This will be a death blow for many places. You are even seeing a lot of popular places going under.
  10. Shot an 89 today at stone e Lea in Attleboro.
  11. Like many other activities these days, it will really come down to the amount of restrictions put in place that determines if it’s even worth it. I’ve seen some grumbling about most resorts requiring masks at all times, even though it’s outdoors. Is it that big of a deal? Most people have face covering on when skiing anyway. Ive pretty much punted on any vacation activity until their is a breakthrough that allows things to return somewhat back to normal.
  12. Raining at work and based on radar... raining at home. Rain is zooming though... that should limit totals. Would be nice to get a nice prolonged soaking.
  13. Phone forecast would leave you to believe today is going to be a washout.... I don’t see that?
  14. Yeah... they were tough to read today because they were soaked and standing water on some. I actually played pretty well on Oumet. We will be back to use our rain check
  15. Crosswinds in Plymouth was in tremendous shape... we only played 9 holes because of rain... but really nice layout. Rain check for 9 holes in the future
  16. 44... actually drove the green on the 8th hole.... dog leg left of about 300 yards... I cut the corner over the trees onto the green.
  17. Played 9 at pine oaks in Easton on Sunday before the rain moved in.... course was in rough shape.... everything was fried to a crisp. Playing crosswinds in Plymouth this Saturday... $79 it’s a little bit more than we like to spend but it looks like a nice track.
  18. I actually worked at Easton CC when I was in college... it’s a nice little course... pine oaks, which is the 9 hole course and joe and Leigh’s isn’t bad either.
  19. Went to joe and Leigh’s golf shop in Easton today and picked up a 3 wood and another pitching wedge (I left my wedge on a course a few weeks ago)
  20. Looks pretty mundane on all fronts here... wind is meh and it looks like we may not see much in he way of any rain.
