You gave irrelevant advice that I didn't ask for...from my perspective you mansplaining light hiking to me seems awfully arrogant too.

...you know I'm asking about the 1,700 ft hill called Mount Major, right?

If you think that's equivalent to one of the Franconia Range, then you're not the type of person I'm looking for advice from.

Glove warmers!? I appreciate your concern, but last weekend I hiked the highest mountain in the Adirondacks (plus two others), below zero the whole day, with a wind chill at the summits something like -30. I think I'll be okay below freezing for two miles, that's like light jacket weather.

Of course I'll watch for new snow, but generally stuff fully melts between storms around there, right?

Yeah you're right, sounds like a good plan

Oh hey sorry, I should have specified dates since "next" weekend is ambiguous. We will be up there March 10-12.

Hey just wanted to check back in, in case you care to hear about how it went.

Two weekends ago now, I made the CT->MA ride, and went as smooth as butter. I did just what you suggested and shot east from Warren to touch Swansea.

Of course, everything you said was accurate. I came across a few big frozen puddles on the Moosup trail, but the bypass trails were easy to find and easy enough to ride. Then the whole WST was fast. The worst part was the stiff headwind on the EBBP, but hat's NBD. I was concerned about my stamina, but that wasn't an issue at all...steady pace not working too hard, ended up at 13mph average.

That first section from Plainfield CT was indeed in pretty rough shape, but still fun! I think I'll take a run with my trail bike in the other direction, from where the WST horse trails start then head west on all dirt into Moosup. Then some scouting runs on the North-South trail too, to see which bike I'd want to take.

It doesn't have to be a court house or city hall, unless you prefer a literal city hall marriage (which absolutely dos have its charm). Anyone can be ordained by an online church, and is therefore allowed to officiate. RI rules even expressly affirm that online ordinations are totally valid. If you're cool, I can do it for you!

Then you just need two witnesses and you're good to go.

I have a half-decent home woodshop if you just need some space to make the occasional project. I'm not running weekly classes or open shop hours over here, but if there's something you need to get done feel free to PM and we can talk.

Jointer, planer, table saw, sliding miter saw, drill press for the bigger machines, then all your standard smaller things orbital and pad sanders, circular saw, track saw, drills, drivers, grinders, biscuit joiner, bench grinder, loads of clamps, etc.

> The "real source" is linked in the article.

It's actually not...they link to the warning, but not the forecast that they copied and pasted. That's the link I added.

But even if so...why not post the actual NWS link rather than a link to a commercial site with ads and clickbait? Seems like a no-brainer to me.

>I was hoping the shovel would stay in the garage this year!

No way! We need at least a few good snowstorms this year!

This "article" is 100% copy-pasted from the NWS; why not post the real, noncommercial source?

It kinda seems like your inability to explain your logic, then falling back onto saying that words have no meaning is you coping. I'm just trying to understand what you're trying to say, I'm not sure what coping I would be doing.

Okay, words have no meaning to you, noted.

You said "housing shortage" in the comment I replied to.

>evictions

Then there's no net change to housing shortage. One party kicked out makes the unit available for an equivalent party to move in.

>homelessness

That's a reduction in demand if someone who would be living in a unit isn't.

>Second, the housing shortage in the US exists for the most part due to the prices of available housing

What's the logic there, prices going up makes demand go up too? Usually it's the other way around.

>dope

Heh

Have you guys been to Los Andes yet? It's not like superfine dining, but it is definitely above average, and waaaaay nicer than you would guess from the outside.

No, that's a car rental place. I think OP is looking for a restaurant.

I mean yeah, "I have no particular opinion of Hitler" is still making a pretty loud statement.

Is $27m really enough? I was thinking/assuming any proper road/trail work would be orders of magnitude more expensive. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding the scope of the Elorza plan. Is it just painted bike lanes like on Broadway?

Yeah public allowed at least when I went pre-covid. Had driven past it a million times on road trips to visit my grandparents in Maine, finally actually stopped to visit a few years ago. There was a security guard, but we just told him we wanted to check out the glove and he showed us to the elevator for the best view.

Sure thing buddy, don't take this opportunity to reconsider how you're publicly representing your "business" and just keep doing things your way. No skin off my back.

>rant insanely at me

Yeah I'm not seeing any "insane rant" in that conversation screenshot...

Hah, touche
