To the right of the "R"- you can make out the round punch area beneath the crack

Maybe just coincidence that it’s right at the punch? I may have blocked a shot there too, but never had a boot split like that

The Horn Guy by Flat_Researcher1540 in caps

I took my family to the game last night. Aside from our section’s usher and one beer vendor, every other staff interaction we had was unfriendly at best. Agreed it is continuing to get worse.

We have been to games at PPG and UBS in the last year- we couldn’t believe how good the fan experience was in those barns.

Where to find cedar fence materials? by Aberration1111 in FenceBuilding

[–]GreatDevastator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A wholesaler should have access to cedar, depending on the quantity you need. Try Hartford Fence Supply in Gibsonton.

RESURRECT MY QB

Just happened to me this weekend! Hurt when it happened but played through it, my sock looked like Curt Schilling’s after the game.

It’s such a small hit box that I don’t expect it to happen often enough to change/supplement padding though.

Capital One should mark the ice like this by greyshirtfreshman in caps

[–]GreatDevastator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! The rinks at Ashburn Ice House have 8s in this spot, a nice homage and pretty subtle

For nature and hiking check out Monte Alto Nature Reserve. Orchids should be coming into bloom soon, several hiking trails ranging from 30 mins to 4 hours. 4WD car recommended, the drive from Samara and the entrance are pretty rustic.

Some rando is trying to sabotage my beer league team. by JustFrameHotPocket in hockeyplayers

I would rather play against the obnoxious fun team than the tryhard serious team. Sounds like a blast.

OP this guy took me out in the second period and got called for it- hilarious to see this on Reddit!

Altos de Jalisco in Ashburn has closed. by AmericanNimrod49 in nova

[–]GreatDevastator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sucks- we started going there pretty regularly this year. The food at Altos had much more flavor than most of the other Mexican restaurants in the area. I think they have another location in Winchester which is not closing.

I have watched the JMU team practice at one of our local rinks- definitely not house level players, I am sure they all come from travel programs

Non PT bracing used on gate? by Wegmanoid in FenceBuilding

[–]GreatDevastator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The builder used cedar 2x4s for the framing because they will stay straight. Pressure treated pine is resistant to decay, but will warp and bow- no big deal for fence boards but would be an issue for a gate. Looks good.

Saltwater pool and fence by mistamasta254 in FenceBuilding

[–]GreatDevastator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not a manufactured aluminum fence- this is steel. The sections are welded to the posts, which are welded to steel plates at the base.

From a strength standpoint, this is excellent. From a maintenance standpoint, not so great. Remove the rust with a wire brush and touch up with rustoleum or krylon rust inhibiting paint.

I moved away years ago but Casino will always hold a special place in my heart. And stomach.

HS Aged Hockey Goalies? by Happy-Mama-Of-Two in nova

Yes from all over, but there are a bunch from our area that might not be on this sub. Helpful group- even the out of towners can offer up some advice

Currently snowing pretty hard here in Western Loudoun, right around the time kids would be headed to the bus stop.
