Right - it's the expense of the depth and then the coil, which as I was looking was pretty high. And of course the unit itself.

I was mentioning battery (home) as a backup to grid in the event...

Not sure if I'm going to bother to go back and fix my images, but I visited here again today and leaves were out.

I found it interesting that...

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to villainize these people, only promote that the towns and counties have some control over this, and can and should exercise this. If the state steps in it's...

I bet they'd catch a few at Tony Harper's too.


I really just posted to harass TCD. But we all know it's fun to stay at the YMCA (https://youtu.be/CS9OO0S5w2k).

I think the current issue is quite the opposite- it’s people from downstate who have immense purchasing power relative to those who must “serve” them in the Adirondacks. It’s rampant capitalism. ...

All the more reason for the towns to try to control it - taxes are very low in the Adirondacks compared to the rest of the state.

I still advocate the Robin Hood method as the best...

Government subsidized housing? Hmmm... that sounds like communism to me. Not exactly what I was expecting to hear from TCD ;)

What are the trees doing?

In western NY we've already had the red maples blossom and wilt - Silver maples are just starting to flower and cherries are starting to pop their leaves.

Some other notes:

There wasn't much undergrowth at all yet - perhaps I was a bit early, I plan to check again in a couple weeks.

Beech bark disease is definitely present, but not overly so. ...
