I was in NYC yesterday for a work event and my coworker from PA was talking about how his son and friends were in Vermont for the weekend. And then he shows me a photo and text from his son saying “don’t tell mom” and it’s his friend’s suv on its side on the side of the road with the airbags deployed. Apparently my coworker could make the event because he was in NY waiting for them to show up on the train that evening…

Won't argue you there.

One day during my 1st mud season, I chose the "better" way out of the driveway and, about 1/4 mile down the road, while navigating the churn - with all of 5" of ground clearance to start with - I came upon some neighbors who'd set up a couple beach chairs, a table and beers beers...who were clearly taking bets on who would (or wouldn't) make it up/down.

Still remember the guy who lost the bet. I waved.

Idk why you’re getting shit for that comment. Glad OP is safe, but honestly if you’re gonna just drive off the road like that you need some serious practice before driving on roads that weren’t even that bad.

This is like saying only entitled people expect librarians to help them find a book. It’s literally the town clerks job to maintain the land records, and anyone who needs help or has questions, has a reasonable expectation that the town clerk wouldn’t call them an entitled prick and to go F off.

We use a monthly flea / tick pill (nextguard). The ticks die as soon as they bite, so we sometimes find dead ticks attached to him. I believe it’s prescription, not OTC, could be wrong though.
