When I retired I was able to move out of that "anti-everything" state and now live in MI. The administrators were kind enough to let me change my handle to reflect my domicile. As most of you already know CT is the #1 worst state to attempt to retire in. Yes, it is just ahead of NJ. So how did I wind up in MI you say? When looking for a place to escape to I had a friend (in a general aviation club I belonged to) who also had a house in MI and he invited me out to look around. I would up just about dead smack in the center of the mitten, which is an odd story in itself. Back in about 2000 I flew with a bunch of friends out to the EAA convention at Oshkosh WI. We got stuck there due to weather and our only escape was to fly across Lake Michigan and pick our way between storms down to and through OH. Flying in loose formation, on one of the legs in lousy weather, while crossing the center of MI I remember looking down at the beautiful farm land and thinking to myself "boy, I sure wouldn't mind living here". Ironically I would up purchasing about 5 miles from that exact point 10 years later. I'm out in 'the sticks' and loving it.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
