    @surfandturf would it be bad in taste for me to ask if my buddy can get a spot for his 2015 jk wrangler?

    just searched this, Bing Maps shows exit 25 is currently broken.
    Anyone familiar with Waterbury & current state of construction? Other than it's a mess...

    If an exit is broken, does that mean when you try to get off the highway, it just spits you back on to it?

    They were removing bridges, a broken exit would simply be closed.

    Weather is warming up for next weekend. I'll ask for a firmer headcount next Thur/Fri so I can have enough morning coffee/donuts on hand. Looking forward to it
