Middlebury - we had moved away from the judges and crowd to the fall out area which was near the highway, which a good bunch of the rigs headed for given the busy late spring weekend and crappy weather. Some of these would have been cool shots if different parts of the shot had been in focus.

Can't Ram it - DODGE IT! Bethany FD's new Dodge (5500 4x4) Life Line - being a Mopar fan this was awesome to see. I understand Somers, CT and somewhere in MD are getting/got similar rigs.

There are a few more rigs on my site, but I need to get away from the 'puter for a bit.

I know what you mean, I haven't taken a single photo this year in sunlight! Nice photos regardless...sometimes you just have to work with what you are handed.

I actually made out alright last weekend, and even Friday up in Lynnfield, From what I've been told by several sources rain is a common theme for the Beacon Falls Parade each year.



Speaking of Lynnfield, North Haven's oft shot white Mack was up there for the "pregame show"
