I'm alive and kicking. How's it going? Do anything new and exciting to the chrome-mobile?

As for me, I (or should I say, my wife) added a couple minor trail pinstripes to the passenger side of my Jeep. No biggie - adds character!

nothing a little touch up paint can't fix.

I went on my 1st adventure sunday with my younger daughter...was having so much fun when a Statie was waiting for me at the end of the hill...to notify me it was state property and i was tresspassing..and then he "kindly" yelled...GET OUT! so.........................I DID! went to Haddam after that and found another small place to go by the CT river..not many hills just a big field and some little slopes. Hey..,Its new for me..until I am sure..
spent all day sunday pulling weeds and tall grass out of everywhere!..amazing how plants can get wedged in the engine!!
I did however finally get my grille insert in...not on my jeep yet though...this weekend

LOL. Sounds like you were treading REAL lightly. You've gotta be EXTRA careful, because all that sunlight your chrome reflects might start a fire or something! :toung:

Where's Chopper? How's our old pal Clubber doing? He's been MIA for awhile now... how's everyone else?

mine said, I don't believe in showers. I guess I look like a hippie:sad:. I'll be back up there again tomorrow. I don't know if i'm going into the city or not though. I think we're staying on campus all weekend. Do you know any good places to eat up there? I'm thinking of taking the girl out for a nice dinner saturday night.

Hey there folks.....I thought I heard some ringing in my ears and I was wondering who was talking about me....now I know

My computer monitor decided it didn't want to help me search
the web any more so it called it quits. Now I'm useing the original
one that came with my desktop. Talk about a downgrade...I went from
a 21 inch down to a 16. But I will say that though the size is smaller
the image quality is just as good.

Milk....I don't know about food in Boston, but I have heard that there
are tons of bars that serve incredable beers that are made right there
on the premisis. I haven't checked it out yet myself, but I intend to.

Oops....your not legal yet , are you?

Oh well so much for trying to be helpfull.

Man! Your lucky you're a girl. I bet if it was one of us guys we probably would have gotten a ticket.
At least you had some fun.....What did your daughter think of the whole ordeal? Did she get freaked out?
