So a plan came to place yesterday to open up suny campus as a vaccination site. My wife was able to schedule an appointment in 2 weeks. Now the kicker, " if supply is available " .

 I'm fine with taxing the sinners, they cost society billions. Who pays for drunken driving, cancer from second hand smoke and bankruptcies caused by gambling debts?  I grew up with  my family growing our own food , I did it myself for years. You just started, so don't get so preachy.
The majority of our populous lives in cities, should they plow the streets up?  Maybe hunt deer in allies and shopping malls?
  As for fencing  in Albany, I don't know how many "patriots"  plan to storm  the capitol building, but major threats have been made according to many law enforcement agencies. I talked to the commander of the National Guard in Vt. today, he said  they are prepared if something happens in Montpelier. I also talked to my local police chief and he's very concerned. Officials don't want the same crap happening as what occurred  on the sixth.  How do you think the family of the officer that was beaten to death with a fire extinguisher feels?  Do you think they  would have wished for a better barricade?  Protest and insurrection are vastly  different. Hopefully, we only see the former. I hate grey weather and that's most of the time lately. Depressing.  2021 better start getting its act together.

They opened it up to the immuno-compromised this afternoon. They are adminstering them at pharmacies. I have to get a hall pass from my oncologist , but I don't have high hopes as  the schedules are filling at rocket pace. Or maybe like a steelhead hooked in the tail....
 
Nice pic of your sis, HT.  I'll disagree with you on many things, but I won't deny you have a good heart.

Me (cancer survivor and battler) and my wife scheduled round one for April 6th (the earliest date available) two counties away.  Meanwhile the mayor in New Rochelle jumped the line saying he wanted to demonstrate to frontline workers and healthcare professionals it was safe.  What a guy!   

The thing is pharmacies are not equipped to store the vaccines without special refrigeration. Unless that is set up in advance. They can promise all they want. I be reluctant at a Walmart shooting what could be " dope ". Just using them as an example. As one sees, mobile sites are being utilized by the state. If the state would mobilize to a pharmacy, that be key, but right now, its not. It's all about spending money and expecting a kick back.

The weather sucks.. getting warm

Being my daughter has been administering the vaccine for about 4 weeks now, I don't know all that much about it. She was eligible from day 1 but has chosen not to receive, as she's expecting. Yes that would make pop pop #10. Me, my wife and sister would gladly step in but protocol overrules.
I wish you the best of luck fichy.

The weather looks crappy starting overnight until midday tomorrow. While I'm heading locally to pillage panfish, it may get sloppy.
I'm bringing a 5 gallon pail with the goal of 50 perch, crappie and gills. Not to bail water from the shanty.
I see the DEC, is also proposing MORE fishing regulations and trying to drop the sunfish limits. With all the new proposed hunting and fishing regulations over the pandemic year, it's very clear there are special interests at work.
Peace and tuna

I hope this winter puts enough on the ground to fill the reservoir.  Loooooooonng way to go, yet.
 

Yuck.. the cold front hasn't hit us yet. Its coming and hopefully without snow for rest of winter..

Seriously, snow expected 2" to 24" by Tuesday.. Cuomo issued a shutdown due to the weather.
Man, I need a job like these folks.
No matter, we will survive

Yeah this sucks Jack. Only 8" here so far but coming hard now. Gonna make dragging a sled tough until the snowmobiles make trails.
Stay warm, stay safe.

Perhaps 15" on the ground and still snowing hard.  I wouldn't be surprised if we get 20"+ by the time it moves off midday Tuesday.  It looks like another storm is headed our way next week.  Hurry Spring!
 

This is one of those odd storms where being backed up against the Taconics and Greens creates a mountain shadow. We have a dusting, and it's not snowing at all , right now. I did start a small commercial snow blowing business, but it really  isn't a killer if I don't have to do anything this storm. I feel bad for my wife who has to travel to the other side of the mountain for work. It'll be a different world. 

We got 30" here and there is a light snow falling.I'll be cranking up my snow blower soon,it will be a struggle!!

So here we got maybe 3 or 4 inches, Syracuse on the oil there hand 12 plus inches

Yesterday was a real back breaker,and I got very little of my total driveway cleared.When I try to take a full cut of this crap my thrower keeps clogging,I have to take it in steps,shovel some then blow some.If I don't get it open to the street I'll run out of food.Now they are saying we might get another storm on Sunday!
