    Dome of my family lives there.  Coast is a little warmer, a little wettier and further from major airport hubs.

     

    How cold does it get in North Carolina?

    Winters are mild and wet, with highs generally in the range of 47-53°F and with lows around or just below freezing, although an occasional 60°F warmer winter day is not uncommon. Lows may also fall into the 15-20° range occasionally. Raleigh receives an average six inches of snow in winter.

    Lived in Raleigh for 8 years.  Have snow on ground on Monday - playing golf in Pinehurst area on Saturday.

    From CBUS Dispatch:

    A New Jersey man arrested in a suspected drunken-driving crash that killed Blue Jackets star forward Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew Thursday night has been placed on leave from the addiction treatment facility where he works.

    Gaudenzia, an addiction treatment company with centers in the northeast United States, confirmed in a Facebook post that Sean Higgens was an employee.

    Just finished a chat session with YT customer service.  The $100 discount ended at midnight on Wed May 15.  The way it read, at least to me, was that the discount ended today.  Also, the $349 rate is if you are a YT subscriber.

    Greatest All-Star Band Ever?

    There have been some amazing All-Star bands that have come together over the years. Be it for a single song, like “We are the World“ or “Do They Know it’s Christmas Time?“ or ones that got together and did entire albums like Blind Faith or the Traveling Wilburys.

     

    If pressed, I probably would have told you that my favorite was the Dirty Mac that did the Beatles “Yer Blues“ for the Rolling Stones “Rock ‘n’ Roll Circus” movie.

     

    But recently I came across these two videos that were done for both the American Bandstand 40th and 50th year anniversaries. They both feature a wild and eclectic mix of musicians that you would never imagine played on a song together. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. The music isn’t great, but I love that they got these diverse groups to agree to play together.
     

    And feel free to post any super groups that you enjoy.

     

     

    These were fun to break up the afternoon.  Thanks for sharing.

    downhill skiing

    in Off the Wall

    Posted

    Learned to ski at HoliMont back home.  When I was living in TX skied Winter Park as a extended guys weekend.  Vowed never to ski east of the Mississippi ever again.  Skied Steamboat, Vail, Beaver Creek, Brek, Park City and Deer Valley (both multiple times).  PC and DV are still my favs.

    Would like to go again but the lift tix prices have gone out of reach.
