MN Transplant Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 2 hours ago, C.A.P.E. said: Here is my fire pit surround so far. Natural blue stone pavers, and number 7 blue gravel. Looks simple, but quite a bit of engineering under all that. If anyone is interested, Ill go more into it. The next step is to stain the frame, made from pressure treated 4x4s, then finish clearing the area around it of all vegetation, put in some small plants and mulch, and a stone path leading in. Oh and at some point a metal fire pit will be placed in the center lol. Not sure exactly what I want yet, other than it will be wood burning. Nice. We are doing an in-ground fire pit, but I'm not sure what the surround is going to consist of yet. I do know that I want to start digging while the ground is still mush. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main reason is I much prefer working outside when its chilly over warm, humid, and buggy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 It would be a genuine surprise, given that Baltimore is trying the road less travelled with what looks like a historically bad offense and historically bad pitching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Great pitching duel. deGrom just a bit better than Max. Jacob has been historically great on this current run. Helped out by poorly coached Nats who can't ever run the bases correctly. Orioles may not win much more than 45 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 If today doesn’t wake people up to the need to transform our area’s infrastructure, I don’t know what will. I tried to leave my office building in Rosslyn at 630 and people were waiting 50 minutes just to get out of parking garage in their car. Traffic was still crazy in Rosslyn, 395, Key Bridge, etc as of 10:30p. Imagine what would happen if adversaries deliberately tried to sabotage multiple access points in the area?

Jebman Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Interesting tidbit folks: Some of you are now approaching average highs of 59 degrees. THAT, is Buda TX's average high for mid January lmao! Meanwhile, in other news, Buda's average high is now 74. The avg low is ALREADY approaching 60!!!!! I have already been exposed to low/mid 60s dewpoints on several days! Leafout is unbelievable down here! It comes SO DAMN EARLY! That Texas sun is already devastating lol! If any of you are getting weary of all the rain you are getting in the DC Region, come on down here. We are high and dry - no rain since early Jan. Looks like thats the trend down here into late year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its happening I've been a die-hard O's fan since 1975 and this will NOT be a repeat of '89 unfortunately. Honestly, they're worse on paper than last year's 47 win team. Even so, it's hard to lose at the rate that they did last year, but this year's team might do it...eh, put me down for 49 wins. A lot will depend on how long they wait to bring up some of the young "talent"...that's a wildcard because sometimes young teams play competitively in late August and September when some of the veteran clubs have been eliminated.

NorthArlington101 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 In Columbus, OH. Looks like some snow is forecasted tomorrow, but it’s rain to snow so who knows really. But it’s probably my last taste of winter, so I’m all in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris78 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I've been an Orioles fan my entire life. I hate to say it but I think they have a chance to break the record for most losses in a season. There roster is the worst in baseball this year and quite possibly one of the worst rosters of all time. It's going to a rough 3 or 4 years but I think they found the right gm. ( Elias). Any of the young players that they feel will help them when there good again started the season at double a or triple a to delay when there major league service clock begins. I went to game one of the ALDS in 2014, and was jumping up and down in my living room with my daughter when Delmon Young hit the bases clearing double in game 2 to take the lead. Amazing how far the O'S have fallen in just 4 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I took the lead in my pool with the VA win, but I need Michigan State to beat Duke today. Then I have Michigan State beating VA in the finals. Nice win for the O's yesterday though that 9th inning got a little hairy. It's hard to believe that over the next six months, most of us think we've only got 59 or less of those coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozz Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Apparently Pakistan is full of weenies. There is some high terrain not far from Islamabad, and that's where they can get huge snowstorms. Quote Snowfall draws tourists to Murree MURREE: Heavy snowfall in Murree and the Galiyat from Friday night until Sunday morning brought a large number of tourists to the area, leading to traffic congestion and queues of vehicles that were kilometres long. Murree received around 2 feet of snow, while the Galiyat received 3ft. After several years, it even snowed in parts of Murree Town that are at lower altitudes such Aliot, Barra Hoter, Nambal, Gohrra and Ausia. https://www.dawn.com/news/1456001/snowfall-draws-tourists-to-murree 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
