  1. Up at UMass for dinner, sun is out
  2. Damn, there's only 2080 hours in an entire work year. 750 hours is more than 90 days. I'm not allowed to carry more than 20 days of PTO before I lose it.
  3. being a govt employee in a pinko commie state has advantages
  4. Damn, I got 3 weeks total for 3 kids.
  5. Agree, good day for outdoor yard and pool prep for upcoming warm season. Put out the patio furniture, enjoying a cold one AWT
  6. Just dropped some fert for the lawn flowers, come on rain !
  7. turned out quite nice in the lower reaches of the happy valley, I washed my antique Honda. Cleaned up quite nicely:
  8. The early season lawn flowers are now in bloom !! A few photos for all to enjoy:
  9. ever take the ferry ? a few bucks more but much less stress
  10. Leaving my irrigation system in winter mode for now wish I dropped fert yesterday, last nights rain was good
  11. i'm with kev on this, you don't want to rely on irrigation to get the fert into the soil - you want actual rain, more than a 1/4 inch. that's a lot of water, and relying on a well in a steiny pattern is risky
  12. The organic matter is the key. The chemical ferts are like crack, they juice the grass but the effects wear off quickly and they don't contribute to the long-term microbial biodiversity in the soil, which is important for plant health. Lawn looks awesome ! Mine's still dormant.
  13. snowy ride down the pike to get to work, car covered
  14. Left Worcester a bit after 8 and it was a chilly mid 40s, back in the valley it's a nice 66/55F.
  15. 30/10F with a persistent breeze, good indoors day
  16. we need the rain, esp. those who use wells for water supply
  17. it was perfect and just what I needed after a 14 hr work day no peepers yet
  18. 62/49 quite nice here before the rain, gonna go outside with my beer and listen for the peepers
  19. B+ prolonged cold and near continuous snow OTG and two decent 1'+ storms make this winter well above average in my book more frequent storms would have pushed it higher
  20. some sleet on the tops of cars in the driveway, otherwise nada OTG here 28F clear and calm
  21. +1, if I had more time and money, I would have put in radiant
