And it was at a time that was very conducive to the average working person being able to attend. What a shame that more people didn't make it.

I've got to take a truck out to Preston tomorrow from Essex. I think that will put me in Brendon's area?

Then from Preston to Chester. I'm sure we'll have time for a pizza break in there somewhere.

I want pizza also!

I am currently at Hartford hospital with my wife, as if I haven't had enough drama lately, she was hit by 2 trucks on her way hone from work tonight. She is ok, just bruised and sore. A lifted dodge ran a red light and hit a Chevy pickup and they both came to rest on the hood of the wife's new Mazda. Now we are waiting for the doctors to discharge her so we can go home

I don't believe "clear" is anywhere in the 70% chance of rain for Sunday. Needless to say...Cali isn't happy.

Dano, that is not good! Glad she is ok though. It's incredible how many people run red lights around here! Maybe more incredible is them being flabbergasted that they ended up in a wreck because of it.

We are home now. she is relaxing with the help of some potent pills. Guess tomorrow will be a sick day while I try to get everything in line to get the car repaired. Luckily it looked cosmetic and no real structural damage. probably the hood, bumper, headlight and fender.

I'm not sure, it's a newer white 1 ton long bed with a Cummins and fender flares. I have seen him around Manchester many times driving like a bonehead. I was headed over to his truck and the officer noticed I was a little hot so he redirected me away from the dodge.

I would have enjoyed slugging him in the face for his previous driving issues. then he involved my wife in his poor choices. if the cop didn't stop me I would likely be posting from Manchester lockup right now.
