Road Trip - Quabbin Reservoir - Pix!
Took another ride from "The Most Scenic Roads In Massachusetts" by John Gibson today.
Blacksmith shop in Sterling Mass
And teepee makes three
Cool car @ a cool rock in Princeton, Mass
Metacomet was here

New sneakers
Where my sneakers would go if I fell
Windsor Dam spillway @ south end of Quabbin Reservoir
I got really tall in this shot
Boston's drinking water as featured in Stephen King's novel Dreamcatcher
(It was also in the movie but didn't have any lines)
I enjoyed Dreamcatcher more than most King books from the last 3 decades.
If you like his older novels and live in New England you'd probably like Dreamcatcher.
The movie wasn't bad but the novel's better.
EDIT - Dreamcatcher was pretty good but everything he has done (with the exception of "Mrs. Todd's Shortcut" from Skeleton Crew) pales in comparison to The Dark Tower Series.
Now there's ~2500 pages to keep you busy in blizzard season

That is some beautiful country in Massachussets. I haven't been up there since I was about 12 and my grandad was still driving a truck for a living. Wish there were places like that around here... Great pics by the way

I've been planning to go to the Nationals for months.
Today I bottomed out the front of my HHR crashing the intercooler input off the tank.
My Mitsu Mighty Max has issues so I don't think I'll make it
