_Wilson_™ 6,567 Posted September 14, 2023 No chiggers or I think some call them red bugs ? Thankfully with this slight cold weather skeeters are thinning out... n so are the humming birds... with everything that's happened over the last year I didn't have time to put out my feeders... but they didn't forget to buzz by....still have enough wild flowers to keep them close.. next year (if I'm still here) I'm put the feeders back up... but as of right now doesn't look like it's going to happen .... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ATC4ever 1,082 Posted September 14, 2023 Yea Maritimes is what theyve always called it here. Atlantic Canada, & atlantic time zone. I have seen on some shows from the UK they have their own 'maritimes' so i guess its a coastal community thing. Even tho i am an hour from the ocean 😂🙄 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freedomflyer 1,886 Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) 59 minutes ago, PROV said: Thank God!!!😃 Have enough people moving here as it is. This place is so screwed up now I'm about ready to move out of here. Developers are not being held responsible for any infrastructure improvements or impaact fees. Our city just built a new 8 million dollar firestation a year ½ ago and now they put a mill levy on the ballot to raise every households taxes another $220 a year for more fire protection. They are building apartment building after apartment building 3-4 stories tall, median house price in Belgrade is $620,000 dollars. People can't afford to buy houses here so they move into an apartment. They want new schools, new parks, new library (which they are building now at a cost of 16 million, how can a library cost more than a fire station? Who even goes to the library any more? Especially with acess to information on the iternet?), an aquatic center, and the best of everything, but they are not property owners and paying property taxes, and......vote all of these mills through. It truly is driving the natives out of here. I have a 2800 square foot house in town and my taxes are about $400 a month. Not the Bozeman/Belgrade of old that's for sure. Now add the cold to that! I need this shirt. I still like it here but some of those small towns in Wyoming are sure looking inviting. We were looking at some properties down there on our trip to South Dakota last week. I could sell my house here, buy a 4 bedroom 3 bath one level home with a 40x80 shop on 15 acres and still put money in the bank. On top of that, nearest neighbor is 1/2 mile away. Pretty tempting.

LedFTed 1,127 Posted October 28, 2023 Been in indian summer for almost two weeks. course it only got into the 70s, with a few near the 80s, still a bit of a chill at night on occasion. course that ends soon. this next week lows to 25. always ends too fast. i did get to see some col;or to the leaves as they fell from the trees, beats green, then brown, before they fall. not the color of old, where it was pretty. FF, i put in a good word for moving up north, on rumble. it was for moving to Montana, cause that came up in the conversion. i was thinking of you, when i posted, because of your pictures, but, i cant remember if its Montana or Colorado. least its not Nevada. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
