Nearing 3AM-getting up when I want tomorrow. Crispish evening.

Gusty and rainy has given way to windy.

Thanks Mike! How long for you?

Congratulations. Must feel great Thank you! It feels great and weird at the same time. But most of us haven’t had free time since we’re kids so that should allow all kinds of ideas but catching up on 50 years of lost sleep is a big priority!

Thanks Dave! If I could have tolerated another 2 months it would be truly winter but no dice...lol.

Last day today! I’ve turned everything in but my ID which gets handed to the police desk on the way out the door. Freedom begins at 6:30 PM!

My favorite snow events from early life are shared with Tom tamarack from growing up on the same region during some fun winters.

Probably your phone.

I think reputation wise bowdoin is kind of like a “little ivy” similar to Amherst. Great colleges in Maine!

Not much progress just yet.....

He’s giving them to all of us. Seems like too much effort to me...

Could be a fun year!

What’s with all these weenies from mersky?....lol.

Hi.

That’s my way to and from work daily-well I’ll soon have that in past tense. I live near putterham circle,

Thank you! Up to Vermont weekend after next. Maybe some early snow?

I accept that assignment!

Yeah I’ve been feeling the anxiety for weeks....just allowing it to happen....a good winter will be helpful! Summer of 2020 was stolen from me and if I’m lucky enough to make it to summers in the future that won’t happen again!

Thanks Steve! Kinda surreal now....after looking forward to this day for decades it’s here!

Maybe we can combine 2010-11 with 1995-96 and go Thanksgiving to April!

What I’ve done going forward-retiring with my last day Wednesday the 30th- is to manage risk. So to avoid all the hassle of schlepping, I opted out of face to face care in my retirement gig. Spoke to the authorities there and was asked “are you ok working remotely but only 1 day a week?”. Am I ok? I’m fukking ecstatic! One of my assignments is to develop remote care options-something I’ve provided for millions in the system I’m retiring from nationally for the past 16 years. A lot of people want my services so I need to be careful-time is what I’m looking most forward to-that and euro pbp in mid winter in the middle of the night...lol.

True. But we now know that some people are long termers n the effect and it’s nearly impossible at this point to decide who. The best bet is to use common sense and so many 18-30 year olds don’t.

I’m on the ginxy train. We were the only ones in 2010-11 also.

Gorgeous NNE and some SNE pics! Hopefully hold it into next weekend for the lakes region and white mtns.

Face timed with our daughter last night. She stated colors are fabulous up there. I’ll be in NH next weekend for our annual men’s weekend (45 years and running!). We’ll head up to VT late week-around the 7-8th depending on my wife’s work schedule... Seasons changing-but for now back to shorts.
