I was surfing for gantries when I came across these:

Nice but just not for me/me. Msrp when new was $212k to $243k. I just saw two similar ads for $24k (2002)

going by the pic alone I thought I would try to buy this today (Thanks Giving) and started to wonder how much cash I could get out of the atm and if the seller would take a PayPal or Zelle payment. Once I got to the “salvaged title” part of the ad my corvette dreams are were dashed.

this is most likely the vehicle I end up with, max speed 15 mph, max range 15 miles, currently selling at Costco for $600 plus tax. I need two, one for my wife and one for me.

this is not Arnage, Continental GT in the picture.
That explains why the other used ones I saw looked so different. I thought this was just a different trim level. Either way, I know I should not buy a used Bentley, a mostly hand built car and an import at that. The least expensive parts are likely the windshield wiper blades and tires.

Continental GT is Volkswagen Phaeton (1st gen) with W12 and shitty air suspension. It is not old-style hand-built Bentleys, just yet another WAG.

We took our fishing gear for a walk today. We walked along the Colchester causway South from So. Hero Island. An old RR bed connecting the Island to the mainland. We could only go as far as the cut. An opening in the causway for marine traffic from the broad lake into Malletts bay. Anyway, it is a bike path now with a bike ferry operating in season to take you across. At the red circle below.

A windy cool day down there, a few pics.
You can see Whiteface mtn. NY, across the lake above the carving.

Been thru here many times by boats, but not by land.

These were displayed out at the end so you understand the view on either side.

Cleaning my place up. All of the firewood was sold and a majority of the logs(3 tandem loads) were given to a friend. The rest was put in a burn pile and will probably burn for a couple days. C1D6B58A-8FCA-4493-9C49-B2006C0C80F7.jpegFCDB8347-D810-437C-9585-8A4478EA1A2C.jpeg
All of the cattle and goats are gone so it was time to spread the last few loads of manure and take down all of the coral panels and cattle equipment.

I saw this Lake Trout today. It was soooo close, but too far from the Lake to target. In this State, you can only fish for Trout on Lake Champlain after Nov. 1, not any tributary flowing into it. Before Nov. 1st you can fish them anywhere.

Look for the tailfin.

You're giving new meaning to the phrase "broom clean"...

I’ll be moving at the end of December and everything is being sold except the lawn mower and my ATV. Going to be living on a 1/2 acre in suburbia.

Something weird about hanging Christmas lights on the house in 85 degree weather.
