• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Good one Bob

Looking at most one more full winter in upstate ny.

We always spend a couple weeks in south.

It will be more like 2-3 months in near future

God willing :pray:
 
I lived 3+ years in the North Country, Watertown, the last winter I was there turned me off on winter. Check the winter of 1962-'63 and you'll see why.

:shocked: The Weather Channel was saying that we hit minus 14...

But we actually did only see minus 11 on our porch! :thumbup:

I've been looking back through my journals, and I've been unable to find a temperature that low for Grahamsville, since I started recording this stuff back in 1978!

I know the feeling

16" of snow this week.
-6 degrees now -25 with wind chill.
Hopefully short lived :pray:

I lived at the Mohawk Garden Apts on Ringdahl Court back around '75-'76 when I was stationed at Griffiss AFB. I remember snow banks alongside the road that were at least 8-10' high.

Don't quite get that much snow anymore still get the cold.
I was stationed in Virginia then.

Those apartments are still there. They just re-did the whole complex about 3yrs ago
 
No one retires and moves up Nawth, Ya'll! :shocked:
Well, not 100% true. I lived in Louisiana from 1991 to 2006. I retired from Uncle Sam and moved back home to Idaho! I wanted to go back to where summer is summer and winter is winter and the two don't mixed up together! :ohyea:

On second thought, maybe I don't count. I was just a damn Yankee, not a native born Southerner. It probably would be hard to find a native born Southerner who has retired and moved north!
