[puros_bran]

I got a little hung up guys...

Will get the route line up set when I get home tomorrow, get the box loaded up sunday, send her on her way monday... Stay Tuned.

 

[Rugbysh9]

Ohhh, the anticipation builds :afro:

Maybe I can find something "special" for the box at the NY show tomorrow!

 

[puros_bran]

Just went through Danbury about 2 hrs ago.... Headed back South and West to go home....

One of these times when I have time we are going to have to get everyone in the area (and there's a bunch) together.

We probably passed each other on 84. Was that you hanging your backside out of the rig as I drove by in my Crown Vic?

Seriously, I just pm'd you about 15 minutes ago about getting together when you are up in CT. Rugbysh9 & I are REALLY close. He's got a local B&M that he frequents in Danbury. We need a B.O.B. New England Summit ASAP!!!!!!
Dock Perry is less than an hour away also...........

 

[Rugbysh9]

HHHmmmm an afternoon of pipes, drinks, food (I'll bring a smoker) and good converation...name the time and place!!!

 

[puros_bran]

Yeah, I know where DPG lives.. I rolled through his town looking for his place of employment about 2 years ago trying to suprise him...lol.

He jumped my junk last time I said I was in Hartford (I go almost every week,sometimes 2 and 3 times a week) for not coming up and seeing him, but two things make me hesitant. 1. The toughest scale house in CT and possibly the entire NE area is between the two of us. 2. The rules they have us under makes a visit require an overnight stay. I'd be out a days work,$100 in fuel, and a hotel. That's why I mentioned 'Time' earlier, if it worked out to where I needed a 34 hour restart we'd be good to go.


And Dover, you pm'd me about 10 hrs to late... I'm over here in Southern Ohio now.

To bad I found this place a few years to late. We lived in Madison CT before me and the wife took early retirement and moved to western NY. We get a few times a year so sometime maybe we will see ya. Enjoy your weekend.

You're from Madison? I grew up there! (I visit pretty often to see the folks, living closeby in New Haven.)

[puros_bran]

Any handoffs you guys want to perform is ok with me... The list is fluid, IF something comes up and you need to switch spots or something don't be skeered to pm me and we can make arrangements.. If I've left you off the list let me know so we can get you on there.

 

[clueless]

I like it PB. I'm down the list far enough that the box is bound to have some interesting puts and takes by the time it gets here and there is time to ponder my additions.

Thanks for your work on this.

By the way, I noticed earlier in the thread that you were at the time in Southern Ohio. If your travels ever have you in the Cincinnati area with time for a bowl and a brew let me know. Can always make time for that and don't get the chance to sit and share the experience with people who enjoy it often enough.

 

[DoverPipes]

DAMN PB !!!
With all these invites, you'll never have to pay for anything ever again!!!!

 

[puros_bran]

The killer is finding a Parking Spot and the Time... It's not that easy, one of my best buddys lives about 90 miles North of me and I haven't had time to go visit him in a couple years... When reality sinks in a little bit it really is a suck ass job, even your home time seems rushed.
