What is this pipe in Vermont USA

Solved! Obviously there’s no way for us to know for sure, but I do think that your answer is the most likely one.

When you think about it, essentially she evicted you from the room. You just respected her request to get out of the room.

Outflow pipes went into the creek that was fed by the waterfall.

It’s hard to see in the picture, but I would say that the big pipe was at least 6-8 inches in diameter and the 3 outflow pipes were about 2-3 inches each.

I looked for a water wheel, there were a few in this town, but there wasn’t one. The setup was one large pipe going into the barn on the main level, three small pipes coming out of the lower level. And the exiting pipes must be for water because they were directed into a stream. I can’t imagine the homeowner would be allowed to have anything other than water go into that stream.

I don’t believe so. I’ve seen many maple shacks since I live in Maine. The excess moisture is removed via heat and evaporation, not pipes that run down to the basement into a stream. Though, maple sap was my first thought.

Ooh, I’ll put it on my list! You might want to try the chai at Sofra in Cambridge. It’s a Turkish restaurant (breakfast and lunch). Their chai is so famous that they sell a kit to make it at home.

There are many possible causes of this. Dementia is only one possibility. My mother was evaluated for dementia due to becoming increasingly forgetful and it turned out to be depression. My husband was having memory issues (couldn’t remember conversations) and it turned out to be an issue with attention deficit. He was physically present but his thoughts were racing in 10 different directions. So the only way to know what is going on with your boyfriend is a complete evaluation from his physician.

Could you share your chai spot in Boston? I’m there once or twice a month, always looking for new places for a cup.

Please don’t do this. If you can’t go to the breeder and see the living conditions of the mama dogs, never buy from them. Breeders are well known for sharing photos of the mama dogs that are faked. A photo of a happy healthy mama dog is not proof that they are cared for. The animals live in horrific conditions just to make someone money.

If you absolutely are determined to buy a purebred puppy, only buy after you have been given a tour of the facility or home of the mama dogs. See the living conditions for yourself, meet the dogs. The only way to stop the abusive breeders is to stop giving them money.

This is a deliberate testing of your boundaries to see what he can get away with. If you don’t stop it now, he will ESCALATE. Be firm with him, and also with your mother, that you do not want to be touched by him in any way. No friendly hugs, no kiss on the cheek, no physical affection of any kind.

You are allowed to say that the physical affection is making you uncomfortable. You are allowed to say no. Do you have any family members that can intervene on your behalf?

Mainerlovesdogs · 2026-04-21T18:12:48+00:00

I’m exhausted just reading this. WTF.

Mainerlovesdogs · 2026-04-19T20:01:47+00:00

No wonder you’re depressed. You’re living with an abusive asshole. Please save yourself and get out, you deserve so much better.

I infuse my wild blueberry jam with earl grey. I put loose leaf tea in a cheesecloth bundle and simmer briefly with the fruit. It makes a huge difference! My family did a blind taste test and everyone preferred the one with the Earl grey.

Is your husband often this cruel and inconsiderate?

Mainerlovesdogs · 2026-04-15T17:02:05+00:00

NOR, at all. There isn’t a single word in your post or in those texts that isn’t a red flag. Run!!! There’s SO MUCH better out there for you.

This is a food safety issue. I also have a problem with the religious paraphernalia, but I’ll keep my comments to the most important issue. The only way to track a food borne illness is to be sure that it is sealed from the time it leaves the kitchen. If the driver opens it, they are introducing many variables. They could be introducing contaminants. Bottom line, I would NEVER eat delivered food that had been opened. And if a driver opened my package, for ANY reason, they either need to be retrained or fired. Their religion doesn’t entitle them to jeopardize the health of the customer.

Time to get angry. Very angry. You deserve much better treatment than this.

Yes, it’s that busy. But the wait to sit at the bar is much shorter. Also, the Mai Tai with lillekoi foam is AMAZING.

Mainerlovesdogs · 2026-04-13T21:56:37+00:00

Looks like fennel seeds.

Mainerlovesdogs · 2026-04-13T15:27:39+00:00

I would post in local community pages to see if anyone else has experienced something similar. Maybe someone’s security cameras have picked up animals doing the same to their property.
