    There is also the Meshomastic State Forest near my house. Lots of dirt roads and offshoots there as well. Last time I was there, I saw a huge Timber Rattlesnake crossing a path as we came around a corner. This was right after I was cutting up some trees blocking the path. My GF was saying to watch for snakes and me being a cement head told her "their aint no poison snakes left in New England" doohh!!

    Never heard of that, thanks! I'd be down to explore there as well. Although I'm not a big fan of snakes...

    One of the many things Lucy called Charlie Brown was a cementhead..haha. Love it.

    If I see a garter snake on my lawn, I run the other way. Terrifying

    Good evening all.
    1/2 day at the hospital went well, but that anesthesia doesn't wear off as fast as you get older.... :-(

    Yup. It takes quite a bit of time for that stuff to completely wear off. I hope all went well.

    Happy Friday Ct and across the borders. My alignment is scheduled for this am. Can’t wait to be able to drive the truck again, especially after all the new changes.

    Morning boys. A day off for me. Seeing if I can meet @themajewski this afternoon to pick up a tailgate that was TW expressed from northern VT for me. Other than that, oil change is needed. The ticker just turned 60k. I should replace the plugs too.

    It’s my daily. I put 30k in the last 2 years and 3 months due to a job change. Prior to that, my commute was about 10 miles hence the lower mileage.

    Good Morning yall'all. (phew, just made it).
    Going to put today's energy into regaining my garage. Donating a car to a museum, finally actually happening - so got to empty it & fill it & move it. then Taco is going to get stuffed in there after the car is gone. But step 1, deal with car. If I'm quick, maybe beach late afternoon. Enjoy your long weekend all & don't forget who we are celebrating come Monday.
