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.

If it's not 990' in CT, then you're at sea level.

Us foreigners don't interact with the ME yokels. We keeps to ourselves.

As we've all known for quite some time. 3 simple things can virtually stop this pandemic in its tracks. Washing hands. Mask Wearing. Social Distancing 'https://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.1003166

My wife was mentioning it. Sad. Apparently wife is divorcing him and he doesn't want to. Coming into to work drunk and he's mad. Not a good combination.

Did you try using the Picture This App? https://www.picturethisai.com/

Yeah, you're definitely going to have to work something out with them because normally you would see a generic brand at least offered/covered on insurance. You may also want to contact the drug company that makes your medicine and explain to them your drug and generic are not covered on your plan and to see if they can give a discount.

Just caught a photo of this guy who landed on my hand. Snagged a snack.

Have great trip.

If you head up 93 thru NH, there are a bunch in the Derry area. 603, White Birch, my buddies at Kelsen, Rockingham.

Foam Brewers Frost Beer Works Burlington Beer Company Lost Nation Those are all in the Burlington area though.

Yeah, I have a Kousa now. It's done wonderfully. Blooms a bit later then other Dogwoods I see around. Nice white blooms with some tinges of pink in there. Fruit is red as well. Looks like red-twig is the same species. I had one when I lived in Middleboro and I just loved the bright red in WInter. https://www.mortonarb.org/trees-plants/tree-plant-descriptions/red-osier-dogwood

This is my ongoing list of plants I'm looking into. Some I already have in my yard. I'm going to wait till the Fall at this point to plant anything given we are in the middle of our dry season. Plants/Shrubs for year round color Spring: Plum/Cherry Crocus Forsythia Daffodils/Jonquils Hyacinths Iris Forsythia Lilac Quince Kousa Dogwood Carpet Phlox Wegeila Bleeding Heart Summer: Astilbe Hosta Rhododendron Azalea Roses Hydrangea Summersweet Coneflower Black-eyed Susan Day Lilies Aster Sage Gayfeather Lavender Shasta Daisy Bee Balm Tenor Phlox Butterfly Bush Fall Ornamental Grasses Mums Violets Dianthus Burning Bush Barberry Winter Winterberry Purple Beautyberry Red Twig Dogwood

Those look good. I'm looking to start designing plantings that I want for my front beds that were just done. I'm looking to have year round color/interest thru flowers,shrubs.

If you were ever to peek in the old lodge, you'd see the menu board still reads from when it closed. cool yet eerie at the same time

That's a great story. I was a youngin' when I skied Evergreen. 6-7 yrs old. Warm winters, no snow-making, and bad financial deals doomed the place. http://www.nelsap.org/me/evergreen.html Pleasant Mountain is the highest summit along that monolith. Some nice hikes I'd recommend there. Nice views up on top where old fire tower is. https://www.loonecholandtrust.org/places-we-protect/preserves/pleasant-mountain-preserve/ Looks like Schrader is technically in Denmark. I believe I've told this story before but my family has long roots in Denmark. They used to own a lot of the land around the south end of Moose Pond.
