I had my annual follow-up with my Hematologist back in April. Was a tele-health appointment. I had to get my blood drawn at a local place beforehand. I can understand the fear from patients whose immune systems are compromised while they undergo chemo/radiation therapies for not wanting to venture into these hospitals that are also treating Covid patients. My father-in-law is currently doing chemo for a Glio that was diagnosed in March just as the shit was hitting the fan. That was a surreal time for them, going to Yale-New Haven Hospital for initial diagnosis and surgery and follow-up at Lawrence-Memorial.

Yes please. That's why my initial post was synoptic rains. Maybe we can score a low pressure around our area to give us some rain.

You should see the white pines and yellow birch at our house in Bridgton. I’ll post pictures some day when I remember. They have to be 100’ tall. The trunks are probably 24” dia.

And that's even with a 60 game season.

Western Atlantic Ridge. You could say Bermuda High

The mountains in the background are ok too.

Sweet view.

What will the last month of 2020 MET Summer bring? It's been a warm one and in some cases, a top 5 warmest to date. Many places could use a solid rain storm. Will the tropics heat up for the East Cost?

Yep. We did it right thus far from a mitigation standpoint. Not many around here think anything about putting one on now.

About 1/2 my lawn has gone dormant now from the heat and lack of rain.

Why? I see nothing threatening to us.

I don’t use it for the ratings. I use it to see what I’ve had before. There are new beers every week to try. There aren’t too many styles that I don’t like, I’ve just navigated to the hoppy beers since I find them the easiest to enjoy over a period of time.

He’s 100% poodle. Was bred as a toy, but he’s more miniature now. Wonderful pet. Smart as hell.

chillin.

It ain’t deleted, I can still read it.

Not sure why/how MA is seeing an increase in hospitals at surge capacity when cases are below 400. Makes no sense. Numbers today were not bad. Only 14 deaths.

Nice. Wish I liked seafood but can’t stomach it.

Pizza and a few brews here.

Man, that sucks. I'm sorry.

I got a co-worker leaving next week for WA to visit family. His wife and 2 kids are already there. Gonna look into getting a test out there before they come back.

MA clamping down on 14-day quarantine starting Aug 1st. $500 fine per day for violators. https://www.boston.com/news/coronavirus/2020/07/24/massachusetts-covid-travel-rules

moist, dank AM

88/68 here. Making a run for 5 day heatwave.

You wouldn't catch me in a bar right now. Not going ti risk that level. I've eaten inside a couple times though and both times there were only a few people.
