  1. I’ll have to go single some of mine out and get pics. I need a 2020 pic of the chestnut out there too. This is all I have on my ipad. There’s a few pines out there with diameters like this. Some of the hemlocks are near the heights of the biggies. I thought most of the trees out there were white pine until I put my glasses on and actually got a good look at the foliage near the top.
  2. Sorry...I meant to put the 100’ label on the pines and not the hemlock. I think there’s only 1 NH hemlock measured at over 100’. I’m probably overestimating my white pines too, but there are some very large ones out there and the hemlock have to compete with them.
  3. Yeah the 100’ yellow birch and only 80’ white pines stood out to me too. I have some huge hemlock and white pine in the back woods that have to be over 100ft.

  5. It was better this year with the dry stretch, but my red maples are starting to get those fungal spots on the leaves again. Annoying.
  6. When I’m out 98% of the people are wearing them. The store mandates didn’t begin until 7/20.
  7. Most stores are requiring masks now at least. Only a little over 400 cases in the state now and not many north of MHT. Hopefully bike week doesn’t mess things up. It should’ve been canceled.
  8. Probably a combo of out of state travel, opening back up, and the warmth keeping everyone enclosed in AC.
  9. Hooksett Agway had some dawn redwoods. First time I’ve seen those.
  10. Wait until fall when it goes dormant maybe? Then try to get as much of the root mass as you can
  11. Showers and overcast all day here. 67.7/62 No suits here
  12. Was at a light in Concord by the river and was just glancing around and realized just how many honeylocust trees were growing around the area. That may be another tree that would thrive in your wetter area. You could get the native thorned ones, but they have those stunning thornless Sunburst honeylocust cultivars too.
  13. Glad we don’t live there. 63° this morning and 60s and rain now.
  14. Yeah I know. But with the way it spreads like wildfire through those buildings I feel like it's not representative of the community spread as a whole. The nursing home right across the woods from me had like 50+ cases, but Franklin has only had 68 total cases, Tilton 5, and Northfield under 5 (NH site just lists 1-4). I know this doesn't apply to all areas (especially higher density areas), but in these rural areas we're talking about I just don't find them very representative.
  15. Maybe I'm wrong for thinking this, but I don't factor senior centers and nursing homes much into the community spread.
  16. MT and WY aren’t doing well? They’re near the bottom of the lists in cases and cases/1M. And these are red states with a lot of people that dgiaf about masks, distancing, etc.
  17. It’s pretty easy to keep numbers down in rural states like VT, NH, and ME. Population density seems to be driving this the most.
