Some more Halloween shots. This is my oldest several years ago. He makes his own masks and I think this one was the best of the bunch.

Those costumes are amazing. What's his choice of profession?

Right now he works at a custom crate place. His degree is in wildlife management. He'd like to do Park Ranger or Game Warden.

This one is a bit more practical. He can imbibe with it on.

Cleaning out the closet, I couldn’t figure out what to do with this stuff…in the meantime it’s a tribute to two of the people who helped me out as a young skier and are being inducted into the hall this year , Alan Schoenberger and Bobby Burns. Now, back to fall cleaning and pretending we aren’t home since we forgot to buy candy this year…

One of my favorites from this weekend’s rainy day adventures.

Eero Sarinen’s TWA terminal at JFK, Idlewild Airport when it was built in 1962. It was restored in 2019 and is now kind of a lounge, hotel lobby. Connects to Terminal 5/ Jet Blue.
If you have the slightest interest in architecture it is worth arriving early and checking it out. Very worthwhile, you can just hang around or eat. Difficult to take pictures of without a lot of effort.
It’s not dark, quite the opposite. Shades of white.

There’s the attached 1960’s hotel too which you can stay at.

Guns on and snow later in the day.

I got a new phone and it takes great low light photos.

I drove by on Monday and noticed how nicely the grass had been mowed. Things are shaping up fast now.

I remember you had a thread asking what phone to get. What did you end up getting?

So what Mt is that?

Cannon.
You can always identify Cannon by the straight rectangular slope up top surrounded by old windy trails.

The state owns the mountain, so they used the highway department to design and cut that slope.

Urban legend. There used to be two T-bars that ran to the summit and when the chair went in they just cut the trail in the path of t-bars although a little wider with the chair too.

@Puck it, I was told that "legend" by a guy who was working at Cannon when the cut was made.

So what trail is that? Not Avalanche is it?

Stein Erickson must’ve worked for the highway dept too when young. When he came to Sugarbush he told them “You don’t know how to cut trails”, and cut a wide one straight down the steep fall line. - Stein’s.

I heard the same thing from folks but it was not the highway dept.

At a local lake. Always magical this time of the year...

And my dogs really have no idea just how good they have it...
