Hey, guys! Went up to Northfield, CT to pick up a 6.0 trans cooler today.

There is NOTHING there! I took a right instead of a left like I was supposed to and for the mile and a half I went there was nothing but trees on either side.

I hadn't even heard of that town before I found a trans cooler there.

Truck's good except for bad batteries.

I'll replace them in August when I'm allowed to drive it.

That's what I said.

According to Wikipedia Northfield is to Litchfield what Yalesville is to Wallingford.

Morning Connecticut.

Got my lawn mowed yesterday, and put the new top on the Jeep. Maybe make a dump run today.

My close friend is going to put his F150 on my lift today and check for vibration. It's got 150,000 miles on it.

I figured that it was about time to stop by and say good morning to Ray, Andy, Rich, Pete, Dave and all of the CT Chapter.

Hope that everyone has a good day today.

Your dump is open on Sunday?

I'm going to replace the railings and flower boxes on the deck.
Urethane all the oak trim I stained yesterday.
Putter on my truck: Leaky dipstick, grease the driveline and front end, primer a few spots (ordered paint @ Levine's)
Hang the new bat house in a tree.

I hope it's as nice as yesterday.
