Trying to get to the dust off. The beetle needs an inspection, stupid NYS! If I can't get it done in time, we'll be in the westy. See you guys there!!

Stanagon Thu Apr 16, 2015 5:37 pm

Plan to be there in my '61 bus, at left in pic, from 2013.

Stanagon Sun Apr 19, 2015 11:54 am

If you're up for some show-side softball, bring your gloves. I'm bringing bats, softballs and a few extra gloves. There is a field near the restrooms, far away from nice cars, that we can likely use.

CrRusty Sun Apr 19, 2015 7:06 pm

If any interest, Would there be other air coolers whom would like to meet in the Hartford area and caravan to the Dust Off show?

shano63 Mon Apr 20, 2015 7:41 pm

Just map quested directions...they say address for the park is 31 old willimantic road chaplin ct 06235. Mansfield Hollow State Park 195 Bassett Bridge Road, Mansfield, CT...that address isn't in their database. Is the willimantic address a good one?

EA812 Tue Apr 21, 2015 1:30 pm

Come on man you've been there once! I don't think the willmantic address will work. Google it. That should do.

shano63 Tue Apr 21, 2015 5:37 pm

Think I got it...don't know what I did wrong last night. Blame it on the coors light...

shano63 Sat Apr 25, 2015 4:43 pm

Beetle passed inspection, wash and wax, we're all set! see you guys there!!

Great way to kick it off. Nice and relaxed hang out. Nice to catch up with everyone after a loooong winter. I just took a few pics..
