    Welcome! Shelton here.

    Dare I say today was tolerable, even nice......I put a hoody on tonight while eating supper on the deck. That wind was obnoxious.

    We rely so heavily on the computers but when they go down, we’re screwed in the auto service world.

    Driving a 21 Camry hybrid. Customer complaint of a noise. Took the car home.
    Don’t like it. I’m sitting too low.

    I've got a noise in my car coming from the passenger seat. Sounds sorta like a woman screaming in fear...

    DUDE!
    If your yard is rolling, build a 2 story garage into the hillside!

    I'm just now trying to figure out how I feel about a big lawn. You have any thoughts on the matter yet?
    Either it keeps a retiree busy, or it's an endless annoying chore anchoring your retirement freedom. Trying to determine my POV.

    That's the reason I drive a hybrid, a 2.7 4-banger & the big RV with the smallest big block. Gotta do something to keep things reasonable because triple digits just don't phase me. :-(

    Absolutely agree. Every so often I go down 684 & every so often there's some super car in a hurry & always traffic is packed. I can always outdrive the super cars because I can see a much larger picture of the traffic than they can. On an empty road, forgetabout it, I'm dust - but heavy traffic I win every time. Tall vehicles for safer driving.

    Big day...Inching ever closer.







    Still needs a few touch up stones. Will also be adding a mirror image on the right side with the same planter (diff plants). Pond plants should be here by the end of this week. Will also be changing the containers the 2 tomato plants and the one palm tree are in. Cant have them sticking out. Want a more Earth tone look. I should have it more or less done by the end of the week.

    Going camping up at lake Waramaug starting Monday so it'd be VERY nice to leave knowing the job is "done"
