Me And Wilson on a rainy morning. Had to drive into downtown new haven today for a meeting at a Yale project we are working on. Figured I’d snap some photos of Yale and other things. Enjoy

Pierson college, the Yale bell tower (prob has another name) Payne Whitney Gym Morse and Stiles College (designed by Eero Saarinen) and the “Lipstick Ascending On Caterpillar Tracks” sculpture by Claes Oldenburg. Who I saw once,  and in true cliche fashion he was wearing a Beret and an ascot.

Back in the late 70s/early 80s I used to play at a bar called Toads Place. Think it’s near Yale.

Great pics. Never seen Yale before to my knowledge so thank you for that. How old is it? I don’t mean to be ignorant but old buildings in the USA always seem a little incongruous to me.

Good look today. That Namo Tako tee always looks boss on you.

[Matty123]

Yeah man! I walked by there today. That place is an institution. Smells like the haven’t mopped it since the 70’s and 80’s. I’ve seen a bunch of Shows there.

[Sage954]

Cool pics of Yale. They have one of the best college golf courses in the country. It's on my list of courses I want to play.

@neph93 just saw this! Didn’t mean to ignore you. Thank you very much and you’re very kind.

Yale was founded in 1701 and its arguably the most prestigious university in the US. A heated argument would ensue in some circles. But I don’t care either way. The building designed by Saarinen is from the 50’s or 60’s I believe. There are 300 year old buildings on campus but I didn’t photograph any of them. It’s an elitist school. A bunch of US presidents have gone to School here. Lots of famous folks as well.

Me and Juan changing the oil in my Jeep. Yeah the truck Is tilted in the lift. Oh well.

[Aetas]

Thanks for sharing. Keep on posting!

The one who should comment a lift pic …....is @Haddtoo 555  ;).

@Matty123:

I’m quoting this pic because it needs to be quoted. Boss combo, worn like a boss.

Also, where’s the jeep at? Do you have your own workshop?

[Matty123]

Thanks @neph93 the jacket really brings it all together

Yeah my families construction company used to necessitate a full time Mechanic and a lift. Those were the days. Now it’s for oil changes. Juan is a mechanic who rents space from us. He helped me out today. it’s a good space for doing minor repairs and engine work. The lift is the highlight of the space. We got a mig and stick welder as well. But I’m not much of a welder. I’ve tried!

Dropping off a shoring box at the yard. The shoring box gets placed in a hole being dug to guard the sides from caving in on men working in the hole. Should have taken pics of it in action and I will next time

picks up Wilson and runs off

[Matty123]

@Seul he wouldn’t fight you. He’s had it with  me. Ever since my daughter arrived his lifestyle has suffered. He’s no longer the baby. Your stance on children is aligned with his beliefs just overfeed, let him sleep
In your bed and repeat.

Nice, @Matty123 . I've spent a little time in the trenches. The boxes definitely come in handy, time savers for sure. Keep up the great updates.
