My attachment space was full.  What's funny is that it had a bunch of stuff from 2011-13 and then it jumped to 2015.  I cleaned up that stuff and am good to go now.  Thanks for the tip...

 

 

I went to my profile>Settings>manage attachments and started deleting anything that was over a couple of years old.

 

I'm bald too but I have a hat on in this picture.  This is from a few years ago with my son at our sugarhouse.  He's a real good helper now both in the woods and in the sugarhouse.

 

wheres the pic?

Four reasons for posting this nearly 7-yr-old pic:

1.  I'm sufficiently distant that my face isn't clearly seen.

2.  My cold wx apparel somewhat obscures the extent of my width.

3.  It includes Abby the Lab, whose cancer will probably prevent her from reaching her 13th birthday next April.

4.  The tallest snowpack I've measured since moving from Ft. Kent.

Taken shortly after the 24" dump of 2/22-23/09. Total depth is 48-50". I'm 5'11" not counting boots and hat, and there's 6-8" of packed snow underfoot. Abby the Lab is fairly large for the breed, and 85-90 lb. The white lump toward the right of the pic is the snow "shako" atop the 4" cedar post where my rain gauge lives in warmer seasons. That post top is 5' above ground level.

awe man that is an incredible pic , sorry about Abby. You are somebody I could talk to for hours, such a great asset to this board and you certainly have taught me more about Forest Ecology than I learned at URI, although I did have a great professor in Dr Brown he was just getting up in age. Strong men need breadth, don't be ashamed, for your age with all your work  you are probably the toughest SOB physically in the area.

Thanks humongously.  My hat size swelled two full numbers just reading that.  And my office mate takes the "toughest" label around here - born Oct. 1941, can outwalk me any day of the week, just fought off (with antibiotic help, of course) his third encounter with Lyme disease.  As a wildlife biologist, he gets into the "ticky" brush even moreso than foresters, especially when looking for (the endangered) New England cottontail in S.Maine.

Had a couple of those buggers crawling up my back pack last Saturday during hunting, But they were the wood tick variety not Deer tics

Great pic Tamarack. Have some good memories with playing in the snow as well with my dog.

my 19 year old Bo in 2011, we lost him that year . He had to be with me when I was shoveling or snow blowing, stood right behind me all the time. Got his share of face fulls of snow and loved it. Miss the old dude
