Expand In my experience, yellowjackets that survive early frosts become clumsy and stupid but incredibly pesty. Less aggressive toward me (though their stings hurt like always) and more aggressive toward the grill and the picnic spread. It's like they're focused on their final meal but ready to nail anyone getting between them and the food. I like some 46/27 days in early Oct - sweetens up my late apples (the Haralreds need a sub-30 night or two for the tartness to be under control.) And the 65-45 stuff is wonderful during peak color but can go away before the firearms deer season opener, which for Maine residents can vary from 10/27 to 11/2 - this year, with T-Day on 11/28, season opens 11/2.

Our garden was deluged with 0.02" from the north edge of that storm, but I did get to see some impressive towers from storms passing a few miles north of our place, and as pretty a sunset as I can remember. Dry air was moving in, giving a well-defined view of Mt. Blue 15 miles to my west, and the sun was setting right behind the mountain. The silhouette with golden glow behind and orange-to-lavender clouds swirling above would've made a lovely pic if I'd had the tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand After 4 hours of pulse running between 70 and 170 (normal for me is about 50) they had the little defib all set to go, and the very thought of it scared my heart into behaving. Had an echocardiogram which was as good as could be and then the catheter from the wrist - right coronary artery blocked but the left big and beautiful, having pioneered a "natural" bypass around the blockage. Nothing serious since then, other than having to quit using ibuprofen due to taking a blood thinner. Tylenol does nothing for me while 400 mg ibuprofen was quite effective. Minor first-world problem. What I did find out after getting home from hospital is that my older brother has had A-fib issues, actually fainted while on one of their European river cruises.

Expand I get PVC's off/on for years now. Extra ventricular beats. Nothing ominous says the Dr. They can ablate them which is what your in-law had done (burn the cells where the origin is in the heart), but it's not always successful and may need to be repeated. I've been reading the Haywire Heart, which is book about cardiac arrhythmias for endurance athletes. While I'm not into heavy training, the PVCs I get on the bike can be annoying. The book is a decent read otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
