isn't Southborough closer to Worcester ?

82/63, dews were low enough to finishing mowing

took care of the yellow jacket nest last night after dark and taking advantage of the lower dews I finished this masterpiece today: l lawn hasn't looked this good since June

64/64 here, windows open last night looks like dews will be dropping through the end of the week - good news

Mowing today, did not finish, ran over the second yellow jacket nest of the season. Will need to work on that after dark. Lawn has come back nicely, now that cooler weather and lower dews have arrived.

are those the ones on Kettle Pond? As we were exploring the area, we noticed that Kettle Pond had a bunch of lean-tos that you could only access by paddling or hiking in.

over 340K

put almost a thousand miles on it for that trip

There was no cellular data at the campsite unless it was between midnight and 6:00 am so I didn't get to post during, but did want to post a couple of photos I got from the trip: Hiking up Washington (with my "adult" children) from Lakes of the Clouds: Fox lean-to in Big Deer State Park. Vermont has the best lean-tos, hands down. Glad we had it too, it rained 2 of the 3 nights we were camping, and one of them was a full on thunderstorm with at least an inch of heavy rain:

Wow, what a find. Absolutely the quietest place I’ve ever been. Dead silent at night. I recommend.

Had a window seat at Red Rose on Main Street when it went though and posted about the hail. just about everone in the restaurant was looking out the windows when it was whipping, it was quite exciting for a minute or two, there was quite a bit of foliage flying around from the wind and hail. Had a few route detours due to downed trees and emergency vehicle calls we had to navigate on way back from dinner.

Wiz was right- Springfield rocked while he’s at Fenway

Street trees down in downtown Springfield blocking streets

Hail in downtown Springfield

oppressive is never great
