  1. Well this sure got me to sit up and take notice...... https://nypost.com/2020/11/11/great-tits-could-be-wiped-out-by-climate-change-in-near-future/?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=NYPTwitter&utm_medium=SocialFlow&__twitter_impression=true
  2. My task for next weekend is to get the leaves out of the shrubbery (the branches themselves, not the ground around them). I think it'll be a pain in the ass.
  3. That's one of the good things about living in ORH. The city picks up the leaves. You just need to blow them into the street. That's how it used to be (or maybe still is?) in some of the CT towns. IIRC from my hs days, places like Killingly and Putnam would have all the streets just lined with leaves getting ready to get picked up.
  4. Yup--out the back and into the woods. Take a little extra to get it over the old farmers wall No bags for me.
  5. I have to disagree strongly here. My back-pack blower is my favorite thing after my chainsaw.
  6. Does anyone other than I think it's kind of funny that Alex Trebek and Sean Connery died in the same week?
  7. There was no damage aside from every CT house that were built between 1983 and 2015 which are now all rubble.
  8. Are masks required during an earthquake or is that only if you're in a package store?
  9. I missed it while walking the dog--my wife felt it here at the house.
  10. There were still a few piles when I walked the dog yesterday morning. Needless to say, they're long gone. The leaves are taking a little longer than I anticipated. Make that a lot longer. I'm glad I took a half day to get an early start on them.
  11. Yup. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1334218640268271/
  12. It's essential that all--and only legal--votes be counted and then let the chips fall where they may. We'll see how it play out. In more pressing news--what a weekend upcoming to finish the leaves!!!
  13. Nice! I woke to 1" of new oak leaves.
  14. I was thinking the same thing........I've enjoyed many years being away from oaks. It's a bigger issue for my neighbors than for me, but just the same. Sigh.
  15. Lots of snow dropping from the trees at this point with the warm sun. I can only imagine how warm it is in Tip's car.
  16. No sun here yet. Looking forward to our first cool night.
  17. Slow indeed. Still coming down albeit nit accumulating. I’ll call it 5 though it was a little more.
  18. back edge on the doorstep. What a great start to the year. Of course, that's what we said at the post-TG event last year. )
  19. All rain in Marion according to my daughter. Just measured on the deck, 2@ 5", and the third at 5.5". The snow cover will certainly help with the low temps tonight.
  20. Ripping fatties. neighbor just skidded out of their driveway. I guess I’ll hold off on the afternoon DD tun.
