I don't think FB videos work either :(

Joel should be able to set up an oEmbed app to allow embedding of FB and instagram.  I think it needs to linked with a Facebook developer account.  :bc:

Come on @SSFB but the cigar down and get to nerding already!  :lol:

Damn, I thought I’d found a way to show these guys comedy can still be funny. I’ll have to find YouTube clips instead.

I had something setup through my FB developers account at one point to allow people to sign up through FB. Something happened that it got discontinued. We aren't running the newest version of the Invision software and that could be part of the issue. The last time that I tried to update it I got a bunch of errors so I backed out of the upgrade.

Docking a tug pushing 2 lite barges on the head in 35kt+ winds & 50kt+ gusts equals a parted push gear rope. 

The rope is 2.25" Amsteel!  That shit is tough to break!!

Glad I was only an observer!

The storm brought a little over 3 feet of water in the shop I work at overnight. Fortunately we were prepared because this isn’t our first rodeo, the brook behind the building comes up a couple times a year.

We haven't been below 0⁰ here yet. Maybe we'll get there towards the middle to end of next week. We have snow changing to rain with heavy winds tonight into tomorrow :(

Do you have enough to ride yet?

No we only had a bit and this fell last night. I'm scraping ground plowing, no base.

Same here. Just an odd winter. The ice is really behind on the lakes too. A local guy that runs an ice business went in this morning and ended up passing away. :(

This was on 6". On a normal year at this point there should be 18" or more especially in close. The "suv" he was driving was a geo tracker.

Parents sent these I guess the sea was crazy today. Idk if anyone’s been to Well’s before but that sea wall with the stairs down to the beach has to be 10ft tall and look at that wave towering over it. IMG_2406.thumb.jpeg.77564e242b674cb05a61b61fa55880f1.jpegIMG_2408.thumb.jpeg.e3f2894d6db1771198e8192f9ac4ae2f.jpeg

No snow here but we finally got some cold. Didn't Crack -5° today.

That's chilly!! It's cooling off here this week but I don't think we even have a morning low forecast to be that low.

A nice steady snow has been falling for the past hour or two. Hopefully we get 5 or 6 inches to help the trails and ski areas.

My neighbor went to Jay Peak boarding last week. He said that they needed snow bad. That's not something that you typically hear about Jay Peak. They are known for getting the most snow in Vermont. I thinki their yearly average snowfall is just under 300 inches.

It looks like we got another 6 to 8 inches between yesterday and last night. It's still snowing very lightly this morning.
