Here's a bit of good news on a Friday: it has been much cooler in upstate NY the last couple of mornings, which makes a morning run much more pleasant, which in turn creates a good mood for the rest of the day and facilitates a good night's sleep. Any signs of fall there? Goldenrod is coming out here, and the hillsides are subtly starting to show color change. 1
Sabres Fan in NS Posted August 7, 2020 Report Posted August 7, 2020 I like lighthouses. We still have many functioning ones here in NS. Another Friday and I'm still in love ...

Yes! I'm in NH but it's been cooler here, too. About 58 when I go outside at 5AM the last couple days. So nice. 1

I wouldn't say so, but I'm also not the first one to pick up on that kind of thing (or many other kinds of things, for that matter). I'm sure it will get hot again soon though. Just enjoying it while it's here -- it was a pretty hot July here.
LTS Posted August 14, 2020 Report Posted August 14, 2020 First day off in months. So needed. Started out with a nice flatbread breakfast pizza, then for a hike and hanging out by a creek for a bit. Had to stop home to get the kid to work and now we're off to Irish Mafia for lunch and some lazy summer afternoon beers to be followed up by more lazy summer afternoon beers at Seven Story brewing along the canal. Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaah..... so needed.
JujuFish Posted August 14, 2020 Report Posted August 14, 2020 Gave blood yesterday and going to go hike some of the presidential range in the White Mountains tomorrow.

Sabres Fan in NS Posted August 14, 2020 Report Posted August 14, 2020 Another Friday ... yous all know the rest.

Weave Posted August 21, 2020 Report Posted August 21, 2020 Last day at the current job today. Emptied my plate of work. Sending out goodbye emails. Fielding alot of calls from co-workers. HR said they will call me in 6 months to see if I change my mind. Definitely bittersweet. But Monday at the new job is gonna be pretty awesome. 4
Weave Posted September 11, 2020 Report Posted September 11, 2020 Had today off so I spent some time on the water. Took the kayak out this morning. Had a good morning. Caught a bunch of smallmouth bass in the 2-4lb range, a few crappies and perch. And got in some good exercise in the process. 1
Sabres Fan in NS Posted September 25, 2020 Report Posted September 25, 2020 Yup ... it's Friday. Survived another week. A week that started out okay and then got a bit shakey in the middle and seems to be winding down nicely. Of course, since I work for myself and lost pretty much 3 days due to 'Teddy', I will be working on the weekend, but that is usually the case anyway.
Weave Posted September 25, 2020 Report Posted September 25, 2020 Spent the afternoon at a brewery in the southern tier. Wife's birfday. Headed off to a fancy restaurant shortly. 2
Zamboni Posted October 2, 2020 Report Posted October 2, 2020 Some company is making a hockey puzzle. Kinda neat/kinda cheesy...
Stoner Posted October 2, 2020 Report Posted October 2, 2020 Beautiful fall day. They don't get much better than this. 1

WildCard Posted October 16, 2020 Report Posted October 16, 2020 Been gunning for a promotion since this quarantine started (nature of my work means all this legislation is a good opportunity to advance in my company) Anyways, the promotion I wanted I was still working for when the one I didn't think I could get for a long time surprisingly opened up. The guy who left recommended me for the position, and so there's a very real chance it's mine. Great Friday indeed 3 3 1
