Thread: East Coast Roll Call V---> SO MUCH better then all the other roll calls

Pumped for this season as well: looking forward to checking out the slides in the Dacks - as well as the resorts - and a few trips to VT/NH. Pray for snow!

Fishman appears to be morphing into Mrs. Doubtfire these days.

Highlight of the show for me was a tasty Ya Mar.

I laughed. Well played.

Wish I could have been at the show, but oh well. Nice to see some colder temps coming, although I guess that means it's soon going to be the end of terrestrial fishing season. On the other hand, fall browns ... Just hope that I'll have some time to get after 'em.

In any event, can't wait for december to come around, as from then on it should be a good season.

In the last 12 hours, I've picked up a Sugarbush 20s pass and a Magic season pass. Hoping to do some early/late season stuff at Bush and get in more days than last year at Magic!

From MWO - A moist southerly flow will be met by a strong cold front from the west today. This will allow for abundant showers as well as an increased probability for a thunderstorm or two, especially as the front approaches this afternoon. Temperatures will start out close to 50 degrees this morning but then free fall into the 20s for the overnight hours as the front passes. This will bring the coldest temperatures the summits have seen since early May. Although the bulk of the precipitation is expected to remain as rain, as temperatures drop with the frontal passage, a mix of freezing rain, sleet and snow are all possible this afternoon and overnight on the tail end of the front w/ a trace to 2 inches of snow possible by sunrise Friday. Behind the front, a Canadian high will bring a reinforcing shot of cold air keeping summits frigid on Friday as temperatures struggle to escape the 20s. And with the cold temperatures mixing with winds approaching 100 mph at times, wind chills are expected to be below zero overnight and early on Thursday. Drier air with the high is expected to bring some clearing on Friday bringing some picturesque white caps to the summits as seen from the valleys below. A few things: if you are planning on hiking up, pack for wet, winter-like conditions, keep in mind the building, road, and cog are closing earlier and with icy conditions expected, there is a chance that operations of the road and cog may be limited or closed so be sure to check their websites prior to driving up or depending on them for a ride down, and remember that days are getting shorter, so start sooner rather than later.

Patience is for suckers.

I'm older... I used to babysit the bassist.



FWIW EW, you look just as silly and "unhip" as I do... (Maybe we need to go to one of their shows... before they get big.)

NOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo!!

I wish.... believe me, I thought of it. Probably an entire years crop from a small South American country has been consumed by said bassist since we last talked...

The chance he remembers me is pretty slim. We did have Miss Vermont last year, though. (And she was a lot better looking!)


EW, is it your fireman hat?
