Nice pic! nothing much doing down here.

Planting tomorrow. i realized the other day when I posted about the dam, that I didnt have any pictures, so I went out and took some. Tough to see with all the overgrowth though.

Yup, Floyd. got a nice hailstorm this morning.

Either way, rebuilding a dam, is no small project. We have an old dam, revolutionary war era, that’s breached on the property. It’s big, 20’ high, 6’ wide. It was the iron furnace that everything around here is named for, furnace brook, furnace brook lake, furnace dock rd, furnace woods rd... apparently it was a big in the 1750s. We had a tropical storm (blanking on the name) about 15 years ago that dropped like 9” rain and ripped a huge section off the dam.

Holy cow! Legitimate snowing right now.

Didn’t see any snow but there is a ice on my deck. Up to 37f now from 33f at 7:30. It is blowing like crazy.

Just started a fire. Never too late to root for snow And besides, it’s not like the alternative is 75/sunny. It’s going to be gross out anyway, so i’d certainly rather see some mangled flakes than the cold rain.

Got soaked here. My rain gauge is on the fritz again but looks like about 2 inches total. Brook is up to its banks.

Warmish, not really warm. I feel like this is how it’s been for the last few years. Miserable through May and into June.

Well, saturday was nice. Tomorrow should be ok. Spring is the worst season.

I hate the moles. I’d like to think I killed them when I put moletox in their tunnels but more likely it was the feral cat hanging around. He took care of the chipmunks, that’s for sure. I have my tomatoes planted in a protected, fenced into the ground, garden and that seems to have worked. But the blueberry bushes I planted get raided by the birds who eat what little fruit they produce. had some good weather yesterday. Some boomers and a little hail. Lost power for 4 hours. Interesting at least. Can’t believe I’m still running the wood burning stove.

30f on the nose when I got up this morning. Beautiful out now

Agreed. My in laws live in Southfield just over the border from canaan ct so I’ve spent plenty of time in the area. Under appreciated. miserable 39f and drizzling. This has got to be rock bottom. Bring on the heat already.

Sure but not today. Where you thinking? I heard there are new trails near Kingston called jockey hill.

It’s funny, because I live not far from there, and I know they done extensive work on that whole network, but I’ve never been. Might be time to try. I’m riding blue tomorrow. Gonna be chilly.

I caught two graupel showers. First in the Bronx, then up in Yorktown where i got pelted with strong winds. Felt great.

Came down pretty good here until a few minutes ago. Welcome, if just to break the monotony. hope you’re are all doing well. I think, I hope, we are seeing the end of the beginning. I got notification from amazon that a tp delivery is on its way. So that’s a good sign. Could really use some weather to look forward to, but ya know what they, when it rains it pours.

Good to hear. I have much work to do to clean up the yard but looks like there’ll be plenty of time for that. Right now, I’m focusing on the important stuff, like catching up on some Netflix programming.

34f here with light snow. Had some legit large flakes about an hour ago. There was a dusting but now it’s mostly melted.

I’ve been to bjs and our local supermarket in the last 2 days. They are stocked other than toilet paper and some other stuff people went crazy for. I’m not saying there won’t be some items that are hard to come by, but for the most part the distribution will hopefully be ok.

I think we’ll be ok with food. Are the nurseries going to be open to sell plants?

Yup. Didn’t notice much if any leaf out but I wasn’t really looking either.

Got to 73 here. Drove to Ithaca and back. Nasty rainy foggy in the morning on the way out.

What? It was winter? Must’ve missed it.
