Drew Beam gets the start.

Base hit between 2B-1B to RF.

Beam - K.

Fly out to CF.

Runner on 1B tried to steal 2B. Runner beats the throw but over slides the bag and Moore tags him out.

Tied 0-0. Middle of 1st.

Beam is at 12 pitches and 1 K.

It made me smile/chuckle that 121 and 148 inches of snow equates to "we only got", but it's also what I'm kind of looking for. I'm under (perhaps wrongly so) the assumption that because of all the snow that maybe the work force is more focused for a longer period of time that a warmer climate might be?

Any thoughts on that?

--> Even though I live in ATL, when I saw it was going to start raining around 5:30 pm yesterday and that it was perfect outside at 2pm, I chose to golf and do outside stuff and do my lab work when it started raining.

I dislike winter quite a bit, so when warm spring weather arrives, I do all I can to enjoy that as much as possible. As a side note, my favorite class is the lab class I missed. I find lab work truly fun and relaxing, so I didn't mind one bit of spending most of my Friday night in a lab "goofing around" and working at the same time with my lab partner that's a close friend off mine.

Anyway... are people cooped up and more focused on work in the winter months or is it more of a "nope, we're out snowmobiling, ice fishing, skiing etc".

I have friends in Lackawanna and Buffalo who got 75+ inches of snow in a single weekend this year. In 2021, a colleague's roof collapsed when almost 7 feet of snow fell overnight... so yeah, we were lucky with only 10 feet for the year. It always amazed me how life didn't change because of the weather. I routinely drove to work when you couldn't see lines on the road - just solid white. We used the heated underground tunnels to get around at U of R and life went on. My students would come to class in flip-flops and shorts anytime we got into the mid-40s.
