There were a lot of 60 plus folks out there enjoying life. The exercise snow brings certainly is an added benefit. Moving it around gets your body moving. Seasons in season's,raking the yard and debris winter brought today This may come as shock to you but lots of folks who are old and enjoying life don't ski much. My preference for deep winter is snow shoeing but you need pack but my preference for all seasons is walking and hiking. 82? I'll be happy to get there. In 2 weeks I'll have officially outlived my father presuming I make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 In all seriousness, this couldn't be more of Brady pump fake. Winter looked off the safety, but is about to throw another first down completion to Edelman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow and steady. Im hoping my sap makes it til I can boil tomorrow. Tank is shaded and was packed in snow, but these temps are ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 50.5F calm, sun about to break out. I just flew the drone from my 1100 foot takeoff point and seem to hit the wind about 600 feet above me. Could see the low vis foggy stuff below but great vis above. That seems to be the warm air layer above. Wish I had a temp probe on it. Pasture opening up. Will be first time since late November. Let the deer get some eating in the next few days, winter looks to come back to NNE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I lost a bunch of sap last year during the day we almost hit 80F in early March. More snow and being earlier this year I think will help.

As a lifelong Dolphins fan, I have fond, if increasingly distant memories of the Pats being a punching bag. This year hurt because my dad had been a Falcons fan from the time of the franchise's inception and with him passing a year ago I was following the Falcons closer than I usually do.

Sorry for your loss. My dad passed in 2015 at a young age. It still stings but time and good memories will heal. Both the Pats and Fins can suck it, the laughing stock of the AFC east is my team.

I wanted to let my hair down and enjoy my lunch walk but crunched beneath my feet and side steeping the dirt water from a melting pack just didnt feel like the same as a true spring blue bird day. We lacked a big rainer to wash the crud into the sewers some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
