Morning CT and MN. Work can't end fast enough today.

 

Good morning everyone!

Can't disagree with that Greg! Anyone have any big plans this weekend?

 

Swap meet Sunday at Stafford Springs, so far the weather looks like it'll be good

 

Next weekend is the swap meet at Englishtown. I'll be there all day Saturday.

 

Englishtown's almost a three-day event, makes Stafford Springs look like a yard sale doesn't it? lol.
We're heading back to Tennessee Monday right after Grand Lodge so Englishtown is out for us.

 

It's essentially 3 days as it starts Friday and goes through Sunday, but Saturday is the only day all the vendors are there. Most show up late on Friday and leave Saturday night or Sunday morning. And yes, its huge. Takes us the whole day (with kids) to get through everything on both sides of the track. I'll roll into town Friday night so as to be there early Saturday morning. My truck and my father's Austin-Healey Sprite will both be in the car show. I enter the car show cause the tickers are cheaper than general admission and you can't beat the parking

 

Englishtown Swap Meet Information

Right on! Linked for those who haven't been. Don't make us feel too bad by showing off your finds there, lol

 

Tom from the NJ chapter always has spot Z-5 and that's where we usually hang out and use as a meeting point all day long. We bring chairs, drinks, some food. Tom usually brings his grill, burgers, dogs, etc. It's always a good time.

 

Morning,
Interesting car fire on the Merrit at the tunnel southbound. Sat in traffic for an hour.....


This weekend: Drill, some sort of flying around and mandatory classes etc etc. If you see a Blackhawk overhead could be me. Most likely flying near Pittsfield MA if the weather is good.

 

Getting close to firing it up 3 weeks I hope!!!

 

Morning all

Was in Sturbridge, MA yesterday when this guy behind me flashed his high beams at me. Could have passed with no problem but stayed there behind me and flashed a second time. Now having him flash a third time I thought there must be something wrong and pulled over and made my 40 at the available. Out of the car came a guy that had to be 90. Put the 40 away and the old guy came to the window and told me the roof brake light was out. I thanked him and he pulled a U-turn and left. He actually went out of his way to let me know the light was out. When was the last time anyone stopped you and told you that there was a light out?

 

It's crazy how you don't know if you're going to pull over and get assaulted or just a 'nice car/ brake light out'
Sturbridge is a nice area, my horse is up there. I teach my pistol classes at the intersection of rt20 and rt19. Love that area

 

Good morning everyone!

Wow. Probably not the way I would have gone about it, but cool that he went out of his way to let you know. The only time I've ever done that is when someone is driving around without their lights on. Most of the time it works, but one time I scared the hell out of some guy.

 

I've tried many times to notify other cars of their lights being off, but it's about a 10% success rate. Most the time they probably just think I'm a jerk. I always flash my lights on and off as opposed to high beams.

I'm looking forward to some warmer weekends. At least the sun is out this morning. Hope you guys have a good day. I've got a three year old's birthday party today.

 

Just got done flying. Went to Windham easy day. Passed my aircraft commander check ride. Woo!!
