    I still need to drill the hole for the cable. I held the switch panel up to different locations throughout the truck yesterday. That's the only place where it looks like it will fit (and not look ugly).

    Hay!

    Anyone know whether it's OK to launch a kayak below the Derby-Shelton Dam off of North Ave?

    Probably not but if you go down the opposite direction towards the Greenway path and /or go on Caroline st, I believe there's an actual spot ppl launch kayaks and canoes.

    There's always the boat launch at Indian Wells. Then there's on further down RT 110 past the elementary school down by the marina

    When I was a Paid Firefighter I worked 24 hours and 48 hours off, So my days off I worked at a Big 0 Tires as a service writer. I loved when someone came in with a Lexus, They would point at the vehicle in the lot and I would say, Oh the Toyota, And they would say "Excuse Me That's A Lexus" And I would say back to them, It might be but there is a Toyota Emblem on the Drivers Door Jamb. While they were waiting for the vehcile to get pulled in they would go look, The look on their face when the realized that there was, Was Priceless.
