[Brian Hines] Plus-50 punting and limiting touchbacks was the biggest consensus concern with Bryce Baringer entering the draft. He now leads the NFL with 10 punts downed inside the 20.

I’d turn on the heat, but by #NewEngland charter, I’m not allowed to until Nov. 1 or three people in succession mention “It’s getting a bit brisk out there, eh?”

Over the next few days I’ll be posting more shots of our trip to North Adams, MA. Here are some photos around our hotel TOURISTS welcome. We really enjoyed staying here, and generally love the modernization of the motel-style layout. We highly recommend staying here if you are in the Berkshires! #travel #vacation #berkshires #newengland #sonycamera #sonya7rv #sony2470gmii #adobelightroom

#today was the day my old friend, the American Beech (Fagus grandifolia), planted by my father and I in 1963 had to come down. Suffering from Beech Leaf Disease, it was becoming dangerous. It was hard to watch, but they did a good job. Stay tuned for the next chapter!

The 30 inch diameter stump of a large Beech tree is all that remains.  All the brush and sawdust is cleaned up and the job is done.  Stump left at my request.

#today we said our good-byes to a good family friend of the past 60 years. The Beech (Fagus grandifolia) tree that my father and I planted in 1963 is suffering badly from beech leaf disease. (more here:) https://yff.yale.edu/news/beech-leaf-disease-new-haven-and-beyond
It's starting to drop branches and is becoming hazardous, so we have had no choice but to call in the arborists to take it down. It's a sad time and it will be missed. I post this to honor it's life and mark it's passing. 1/

#today #BeetBear and I decided to see how the carrots we planted in April were doing. Not too bad as it turns out! These are a Chantenay-type called "Moonraker". I grow them in a pot because my garden soil is NOT good at producing decent carrots. These days I plant in a pot and let them get on with it all summer. Pictures show newly sprouted, mid-season, and harvest. The crop will provide many servings between now and winter. We pull them as needed.

They should produce more #rain and more #wind,” said Emanuel, who lives in Maine. “We certainly have seen up here an increase in the destructiveness of winter storms, which is a very different beast.

Key Messages for Hurricane Lee Advisory 41: 11:00 AM AST Fri Sep 15, 2023

1. Hurricane conditions are possible across portions southern New Brunswick, and much of Nova Scotia on Saturday within the Hurricane Watch area. Tropical storm conditions and coastal flooding are expected to begin in 
southern New England within the Tropical Storm Warning area this afternoon, and spread northward along the coast of New England and over portions of Atlantic Canada through Saturday. These conditions are likely to lead to downed trees and potential power outages. 


2. Heavy rainfall from Lee could produce  localized urban and small stream flooding in eastern Maine into portions of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia from tonight into Saturday night. 

3. Tropical storm conditions and high surf will continue to impact Bermuda during the next few hours.

Because of changing life circumstances (my partner going into assisted living, me moving to a new apartment) we're needing to re-home our 2 dogs.

This is really, really hard. Luckily one of them is going back to my GF's ex-husband (which is an excellent thing) but I need to find a new home for Bella.

(more details about Bella in 🧵 )

*** Boosts greatly appreciated! 🙏 🐶 ***

Bella, a brown & white wire-haired dachshund-ish dog, is up on her hind legs (which she does a lot!) asking for a treat from a human whose legs only are visible. Pebble, a small black dog, waits her turn.
Bella and Pebble enjoying the sunset. Bella is on the left, a brown and white wire-haired terrier-ish, dachshund-ish dog. Ultra cute!  They are on a green field, shadows stretching out behind them, bare winter trees behind them and blue sky above.
Just Bella's head, looking straight at the camera.  She has brown eyes, brown fur with white highlights. Long snout. Long wiry hair with funny tufts in places.
Bella--a brown+white wire-haired terrier/dachshund, lying on a couch looking a little sad.  But she's usually very happy!  Her random tufts of fur are visible. She's brown with white highlights. The couch is beige.  There is sunlight through a venetian blind to the right.

Early New England Autumn is when all the sunflowers are in full bloom! Love the colors of Fall.

#today we just ended our cornfest 2023. Our total ears of #sweetcorn brought to the table from the #garden this season was 197. This is not bad but our third planting ended up a little disappointing because I did not manage to feed the last row of corn enough for a variety of reasons, but lesson is learned for next year! (If I count the 4 ears the squirrels stole we grew 201 ears) Oh, yes, we also have several tons of #tomatoes (lost count)

“Crimson Horizons”
The other night I took a friend out to photograph sunset here in Maine. We decided to head to Pine Point in Scarborough. The sky set up beautifully and eventually ignited into a blast of reds, yellows, oranges, pinks, and purples. Amazing.

#today I continued to move the composted corn stalk shreddings out to the garden as mulch. You can see all the shrew activity in the shot of the top of the pile when the carpet is removed. (The shrews are ok, they just move into the next pile. Pix also show the obligatory volunteer compost tomato. Stuff was shredded last September and piled up here to sit over the winter. Turned once with a pitchfork in April and now done.

Two wire-enclosed compost piles.  The right one is partially removed.  The left one is fresh material just starting to rot,  Everything is surrounded by a tangle of catnip, raspberries and volunteer tomato plants.

From such baby steps is our progress made:

#NewEngland's largest energy utility, #Eversource, has parted ways with the #AmericanGasAssociation — a powerful industry group that environmentalists say has been instrumental in blocking efforts to address #climatechange around the country.
