Unlike down through our region where we see roughly a 2ft? difference, up here they average 9-10 ft with occasional 11 ft. When I get back in a few days I will post some pics. Wow that is crazy, I like to see some images. By the way, how is the food, I imagine very yummy. You might like this recipe..... I love calamari. My grandmother handed down years to me years ago a recipe that features linguine pasta served with a marinara, from garden tomatoes of course, sauted with the calamari in olive oil and topped of with fresh basil. An excellent seafood sauce , believe ir not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Plenty of great waterfalls in Vermont and NH. Most are pretty easy to get to with relatively short and not difficult hikes. I always end up climbing down(or up) off the trails to get a better vantage point. The weather was so perfect too. I am ready to go back! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showmethesnow Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Worst thing about a vacation is the trip home. On the last leg with a little over an hour to go. Maine is gorgeous though and the long drive was well worth it. Mohegan Sun poconos casino made out like bandits from our 2 day stop over on the way home. Now I have my fingers crossed that my garden hasn't had any issues from not being tended for 11 days. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 @losetoa6 A friend of mine is moving and needs to get rid of the exact table that I have. An 8 ft Olhausen. I think they'd take a couple hundred for it. Any interest? Anyone else? If so, PM me. The table is located in Columbia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowmagnet Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Hey everyone! I stopped by the forum to see if there is any cool down in sight, but it’s not looking good. I usually don’t mind summers around here, but I was in the UK and Ireland for almost 3 weeks (it was between 55- 75 degrees), and came back to this nasty heat and humidity. Can’t wait to start tracking snow, but this increasing heat can’t be good for our winter prospects... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 My weather calendar hanging in my office tells me that two years ago on this date the Kent Island tornado formed over the Chesapeake and then moved inland. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to Kent Island pretty often, and I was there a day or 2 later. Damage just inland was pretty impressive, and from route 8 you could clearly see the path it took NE and across route 50 as it weakened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Yeah, work took me to the shore a few weeks later that summer and it was absolutely apparent. Crazy evolution on that storm and it all happened so quickly as I recall. In the early morning hours after midnight too, if I am remembering it right.

A limb was supporting the weight of most of the tree so it kept the other branches from smashing down and denting the car. Maybe a couple scratches to the clear coat and thats it. it was a nice maple tree too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Stay cool everyone! Feels awful out there...ugh. Sitting here recovering from having a pin placed in the top joint of my left pinky finger to set it...had that done earlier this morning. Got injured last week at a softball game (on a bad throw, damn the 3rd baseman haha!). Fractured the top part and dinged the joint out of place. Fun times! Pin comes out in about 4 weeks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
