    Yep, nice people, nice area. But VA and New England are very different and it is going to take some getting used to.

    As to the accents, most all areas in the US do have some type of accent, with mine being very noticeable to non New Englanders. That is not really a problem but the culture and even the way things are done here, as well as things such as architecture are very different. I find my own house in VA to be unusual, just like all the other houses here :)

    But they certainly do burn wood here and I am leaning more towards doing that after getting a year- long contract from the propane co. for $160 / month for 12 months. That is a very high price IMO for heat only, with the A/C and hot water being electric, and the heating season being shorter here.

    Dropped down to 42 about 1 1/2 hours ago.

    Heading for 75.

    Never got any significant rain yesterday, But, not so many miles away had violent T-storms. Wind kicked up for awhile but by pre-sunset it died down to nothing and we had a great sunset.

    I was out in the woods working on one of the big oaks that came down recently. It was hot in the sun but felt good in the shade of the woods, especially when a nice breeze came up. Temps got up to 88 today.

    Yes I did but should be able to turn it off very soon and don't think it will be needed tomorrow either.

    46 now with (get this.....) 93% humidity! With the humidity that high, it sure doesn't feel like its in the 40's.

    Heading for a sunny low 70's today.
