Fine. Good chance they get a one game shot-in Cleveland

2nd half struggles last year which some think was tipping pitches. Agree-him and stroman would be a formidable combo.

Maybe. No mention of the fact that their ace hasn’t pitched all year...an ace that can stand tall with a lot of them. Better hope he’s out all year. .

FYP

Man your dog near mom and Cubs is dangerous for doggie!

Lol...93 at Logan at 2PM

So it seems we are in a cycling pattern with more troffiness the first half of each month and less the 2nd half.

A heatwave is 3 straight AOA 90. Doesn’t have to be particularly memorable.

Lol...you moved what 20 miles east? Congrats on more rain vs snow... Upton has 86 but many outlets 90.

Note the term many. Then again....as Danbury CT goes, so goes America.

Looks like a good shot at a 3 day heatwave starting tomorrow for many spots.

Ensembles show a pattern change to cooler 11-15. We’ll see but as it stands now it may be 70s/low 80s around 8/10. Should be interesting to see how accurate it is.

Dewy afternoon

I was climbing mount Whitney in California 37 years ago in August. We pitched a tent at trail camp around 12,000 feet. Around 2pm ice balls mixed with rain which became all snow leaving about 3 inches which melted by 10am the next day which was helpful since that was the day we summited.

Well that’s no longer technically true.....but I get your drift....

Through 7/24: BOS: +5.2 BDL: +4.6 PVD: +3.0 ORH: +3.2

Here’s what I meant. I’ve been looking forward to being a nobody for a long time. It’s who I really am. But the shear gravity of decades of high intensity mean it’s a transition. I’m sure I’ll love it but like vacation takes a few days to get used to a routine that’s different, retirement takes time also. Your retirement circumstances and experience can’t be grafted onto everyone else. I will say that no one I know is unhappy in retirement unless they don’t have enough $$ and that won’t be an issue for me. But I have made a commitment to my family and plan to stick with it if I can.

To Pickles’s point-retirement is usually lovely if one is in reasonable health. But it’s a huge life event and it requires adaptation to a different reality. I’m looking forward to it-had a child past 50 so we work into our 70s....

I’m wondering if it happened just before I got there....but those guys saved my butt from huge embarrassment. Long white coat FTW.

Outside of the northern tier-the large swath of ac may well be well over 90%. It’s basically a necessity in all of SNE for periods during the summer and even in NNE several nights per year. With that said, we’re heading to London and Paris at the end of summer. We made sure everywhere we’re staying has ac. I was in London about 30 years ago during a heat wave-it was tough!

OMG-major wardrobe malfunction. Warehouse guys were the only ones with the guys to let me know of the big rip in the back of my pants!

Stowe. Timeshares in general suck.

Wish I did....

I haven’t used an alarm in years although if I needed to arise at 4:30 maybe....5:30 during the week now. Point is-didn’t wake up till 5:55 due to darker mornings. I hate losing light but by winter I’m happy.

Yikes! London may hit 100 today! Paris not far from 110.
