    Any thoughts on places with solid IPAs in the Ridgefield area? Planning to hit up Nod Hill and Hoodoo BBQ, but curious of any additional beer recommendations in that area.

    We continue to explore the breweries of CT to try and discover new things. Although admittedly we always end up finishing the night at Newsylum—that place is really hard to beat. We went the night after Halloween and that whole area was just as spooky as ever.

    Took the fuse/relay panel apart so I can make the holes for the switches (easier to drill without the stuff in the way).

    Taped it and about to make a template.

    Good morning CT.

    Happy Friday.

    Made a template for the holes. Now I have to take the panel to work then mark and drill the holes. I'm adding two switches. One for the compressor and the other (possibly) for under hood lights. I need to draw up a wiring diagram to see if it will work.

    Morning everyone.

    Happy Friday. Day off today so I can drive up to Boston later for the soccer tournament this weekend.

    And we got a bit of snow overnight... ARGH.

    I might be making a pit stop there on the way back from my son's soccer tournament on Sunday.

    Gotta stock up for the holidays.

    LED interior, license plate, and fog lights. More to come.
    Yup, I did not expect 3+ inches on the ground at 5am this morning and really didn't expect it to be sticking to the roads. A lot already melted when I checked the security camera. Hopefully it melts quick so can put the winter cover on the boat that's sticking out of the carport.

    Good evening CT. The week slowly got better.

    Still waiting on the engine harness I ordered on Tuesday. Car came in with multiple lights on the dash, no reverse lights and no backup camera. Park/neutral switch isn't getting power.

    Good morning CT.

    Went to bed early so now I'm up. Going to change the oil and replace a headlight bulb on my BIL's car later today.

    Hi all. Happy Saturday...I have been non stop for the past few days....We are closed for Thanksgiving so I just need to get through Wednesday lol. Been spending my nights after work building/wiring up my Vevor diesel heater. Since the FIL got me the one that isn't self-contained, I'm putting it into the harbor freight Apache case. Works out better this way. No I can do it how I want to and make sure it fits where and how I need it to.
