TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Alright, what’s the east section to buy tickets to a pats game that isn’t going to break the bank?. Like the best nosebleeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the best nosebleeds Take out a second mortgage for the 100 sections. 200 sections are decent but not cheap. 300 sections are less expensive, but it can take a while to get to/from your seats up there. Also, just so you know the top row in the 300 section is really far from the field and really high. when they do a flyover, you can see the top of the planes from those seats. The best way is to go through Seat Geek and buy just prior to gametime. either way, expect to pay over $100/seat. I buy whatever seats are the absolute cheapest and walk around/stand to watch. There are some great vantage points. plus people watching 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the best nosebleeds I would also factor in time of the year, game time etc. If you get certain games you might have issues with the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With less than 1/4" in the past 8 days and none today, I may need to water the garden - for the first time in 2 months. This after 2 days with ginormous downpours within 20 miles of here. (And given the recent outcomes from the most recent 4-5 heavy rain opportunities, we may well skate into next week's sunny with low dews after dodging another couple of chances.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We kind of just want a mini split for our bedroom so we can turn the temp up a bit on our central air, especially at night. The actual mini split system, I see them on Amazon for like 700 bucks for a small one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The frame that it sits on goes in and the unit rests on that so it’s held up by that and not the window. They give you pieces to fill in the gaps. I think the first time I saw it was a link that @Ginx snewxput in one of these threads. It’s like a window unit mini-split. The only thing inside is the blower unit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Not our region, but I just find this incredibly powerful. I’ve been to Arlington a few times and it’s always humbling. This is on another level IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Just ran over a yellow jacket nest while mowing. Got stung multiple times. I should’ve known because the ground sank in on one pass and then in the same spot on the return was when I got attacked. It must be a massive nest. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason one of my earliest memories of my father is him hitting a nest with the push mower and just taking off in a dead sprint past our living room windows. Don’t know if I ever remember him moving that fast again, ha. Mower sat there for like a day in the middle of the yard. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran over one in my front yard 2 weeks ago and got stung. Just found the entrance while mowing today, fortunately they didn’t find me. Large unmowed patch in the middle of the front yard. Will deal with them tonight when it cools off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happened to me, I had a long sleeve shirt and on and they were up my arms, I never ran so fast into the house, my arms had several stings. I waited until nighttime, and I sprayed the hole.
