The last thing anyone needs is more Oaks .

oh believe me, I am with you on that. i still have 100,000 growing in my lawn.

funny thing is, when I rake up the acorns, I chuck them in various spots in the woods. One year I had 2 dump carts full of them. Those never grow (probably deer food). but the ones that fall on my lawn, no problem growing and the stupid deer don't eat them.

87/75. grossness

A legit question/ concern.. last year being a huge mast year for acorns.. all along the edge of and even deep in the woods are new little Oak saplings. The kind you see in lawns that can be mowed. But I mean there’s hundreds, if not thousands in the woods.. way too many to pull . Will all of these become new Oak trees or will they die? I mean I’ve never seen this many before and it’s concerning 

They will crowd themselves out, don't worry the thousands will be down to the hundreds in like 10 years.

seriously though, I wouldn't worry about it. It's nature, baby!

mosquitos are out of control this summer. i was under attack late afternoon yesterday as I was tending to some of my sprinkler heads. very annoying having to dodge the spray of the sprinklers AND the skeeters

Currrently 62 off a high of 63. wow what a torch

65/62 here.  Good mosquito weather 

I got done planting a few things for the better half, went out back to have a beer and got carried away by the skeeters. unpleasant.

63/61 just had another rain shower. Summah!

57 with low clouds and drizzle. Certainly a nice mild morning here. 

and it is certainly steiny. Only picked up 1/2” of rain since last night.

Man some of you guys need to step away from the keyboard and look out the window. It’s June 28. this weather sucks ass

Did @Damage In Tolland get a hold of Tip’s keyboard?

Bizarre. Who ever heard of BDL running as the cool spot? They've really neutered a lot of these ASOS sensors. Ever since Trump took office, all of these big warm spots have suddenly disappeared. Makes it difficult to compare to recent past heat waves. They have them set on hard mode for this heat wave, and we're still throwing up big numbers.

Every once in a while I get a whiff of decaying and drying up (fresh) dog poop...usually it's not very pleasant but for some reason on a day like today its kind of refreshing...just further adds to this experience. 

WTF is wrong with you?

After a few mows they all seem to die off

usually it's 3-4 mows. It's been like 8 mows and they are still growing.

Another horrific acorn year is here. Picking up all these limbs and they’re loaded for bear  WTF

i have baby oak trees growing all over my lawn from last years acorns. I really don't want that again. i am actually kicking around the idea of taking down 3-4 big oaks in my yard. there will still be some, but those 3-4 trees make a ton of acorns and fall clean up is no joy with all those leaves.

wingaersheek Beach up on the N side of Cape Ann, where the Labrador current stuns all else, does that.  Coved formation/pools around the beach and very long surf floor - you can walk out a quarter mile a low tide - makes for "fake" warm water there.  

my favorite beach, spent a lot of time there as a kid

68/68 this AM. this weather is disgusting

Red thread running rampant in every yard and neighborhood in New England . Tough year for it 

Yup my lawn is covered with red thread. I put down fungicide a couple weeks ago and it did nothing. Need to hit it again
