Welcome to the forum from Boston. It all started when I too cleaned my parents basement and scrapped my parents old treadmill. Good luck with your endeavors. -mascraps

The Liberals in Vermont stay in Burlington, and the Conservatives hide in the mountains

Glad to meet you. I grew up outside of Fairfax. About 4 miles from good old St. A By the reservoirs on Rt 104 if you know where that is. I will be back home in a week for vacation with the family. I now live in VA. Too many granola's and pinko's up there for me now. Beautiful country though.
