^^ c'mon! mniaw said 'for vt'

how many 'towns' in VT have you passed through that are little more than a traffic light, a gas station and maybe a small eatery?

nice work and may the shack find a worthy new pilot:yourock:

poop hatch or full disrobe req'd?

solid indeed! my first pair of poles had those molded grips.
i honor them still as a never-strapper.
