Hamden is windy. Yesterday was a far nicer day than today. At least the crane won't work so I'm not stuck on a really crappy job in north branford although I'm sure I'll be on that job next week.

Truck wont start, think the solenoid went out, was cranking, then just stopped. Those things are not reliable at all. Got now power to anything right now.

haha excellent. I just cleaned off the battery terminals, connections, grounds, etc. Charging the battery more now. Gotta wait to get the connection at the starter until tomorrow. Too dam cold out for me, and no light. Hopefully that'll do it.
