Reply to Winter advice and tips for new folks. by [deleted]
I’m a 62f, lived here most of my life, (ten years I lived in Mass) never in my life have I had studded tires. Nor will I, it’s a total waste of money. I’ve never had 4x4 and just recently got AWD (and that’s only because I used it for camping, though to be honest AWD means Jack shit. I was taught how to drive in the winter. Drive slowly and steer into the skid. With ice, if you skid, let go of the wheel..ain’t nothing gonna stop the skid. My ex hit a patch of ice in the 80’s, didn’t see it and we spun around so quickly, it was over in an instant. I’ve skidded, but never really had a bad accident. Save yourself some money and go to a parking lot and practice like we all were taught.

Go in the other direction to Salisbury, MA off 186. Lena’s opens in March (we can’t wait). They have great seafood. Having been born and raised in Maine, I have to say it’s the best. Then we go across the street for an ice cream…Hodgies Too.

You are wrong on sooo many levels. Seems you suck at figuring things out. The government has been burying things for many many years and you think they are ‘working on it’? 🤣🤣🤣
First of all…I’m not a male. Secondly…They can’t reverse anything. Our oceans are polluted and rivers are too. Research pole reversal and then come back and talk. It has happened before. I’m a 62f and have known for some time the acronyms they create are for your benefit not humanities. Nothing but a load of crap. Read about Love Canal and all the other places companies have buried chemicals,,,there are lots. Also, the lay person can’t change anything, when semis, dump trucks, planes, trains and other commercial vehicles dump WAY more shit into the air than our cars. They just want you thinking it’s your fault. Well you can own that guilt…I’m not. I lived in MA back in the 80’s and they had emission testing, that stopped right quick. Then it was in Maine for a very short amount of time. Go back to mommy’s basement.

Soooo…why complain about something we can’t change? We might as well live with it and enjoy life as much as we can before we leave this experience.

I agree with you but I was born and raised here, and the issues continue.

I really can’t believe contractors build the same in every state…this is Maine, we get snow and oftentimes HEAVY snow. I’m a 62f and I understand this.

It happens. I’m 62 and I remember when a few years back when they refused to deliver oil because we forgot to make a path. We made a mad dash to shovel through a foot of snow and make a car lengths path. They were coming back. 🤦🏽♀️. We didn’t forget again!

Oil companies won’t deliver if there isn’t a path, nor will gas companies. Or mail deliver services.

Staples has an HP laptop for $300. Way better than rent a center. Some people have older computers laying around, check marketplace. But then ask someone if this is ok. Don’t get taken.

I’ve made it several different ways. I have used ground beef, ground lamb, ground Turkey. Canned stewed tomatoes. My sister in law just made some yesterday for a get together with carrots and cabbage. In it. Which I am going to try next time. When I was growing up here in Maine in the 60’s my grandmother called it goulash. But I think goulash has corn in it.
