Stop in for a cup of coffee

Most of the Arsenal was sold of to connect folks years ago.
I visited the Arsenal on a class trip about adaptive reuse.
At the time the city had the police sex crimes unit based there (sort of safe setting) and maybe a couple of other spaces.
I recall an archery range and some other private companies renting space.

Whole thing is a real shame.
A lot of history there.
Also a lot of capacity lost. Just like the transfer of Springfield Arsenal to the NPS. Consolidation of the 1970s and short term savings. We are paying for it now even if most people don't realize it.
 
Yummy I bet. That from your kitchen this morning?

Oh I could enjoy that breakfast, wife has my oatmeal and fresh blueberries almost ready for me, she doesn't like oatmeal.
Yep. JUst a box mix.

Charley is not supposed to be on the table but as long as his back legs are on the chair it doesn't count. (or so he thinks) :lol:

Sounds like this is all stores. And everything but diesel. Think I will grab a couple cans and head over. Not going to sit in a line all day or even try to get in a jammed up parking lot though if it’s crazy…
Not happening. Lines into the road in 3 directions. Went to Giant and used our points. Would have saved another 20. but not worth a fender bender. People get stupider when trying to save a buck.
 
Same thing here, sheetz is packed and traffic blocked in all directions. Cops need to be out there, it is going to be a mess. I don’t need it that bad

There was a charter school there.
Small business start up center.
It's all about connections.
 
Good morning everyone. Happy 4th. It has been so dry here...and hot. Possibly a tstorm this aft. Made a small bed/box for my hot rod to help finish it off some. And just a nice Merica pic from last night.

Morning fellers, Happy Birthday Merica. got another turd floater last night so now mowing today. Coffee is on, need to find a light problem in the DeSoto, intermittent turn signal on the left side.
 
Back from local show. Few pics. I think that was all the old Mopars(there were a few modern) plus thought the Falcon vert was cool. Love seeing something different that ain't at every show.

Rearranged the shop and got the Chevy on the lift. Mowed the grass and got weed killer sprayed. Done for the day and time to relax. Going to do the Chevy and Ford oil changes tomorrow.
