    So this past Saturday, after waking up in Meriden after a night out with Kristen, Carole, and Todd.... I began driving home.

    then I remembered that they were filming the fourth Indiana Jones movie in New Haven... so I took a little drive.

    Note that the movie is set in 1957, so everything reflects that period...The shooting took place on and around the Yale University campus in downtown New Haven, Connecticut.

    Like an idiot, I had my camera on the wrong setting for the first few pics.. blurry. It gets better..

    some extras:

    Very cool shots Dennis! By the way-you woke up in Wallingford :lol:

    Fletch, New Haven isn't that bad by the Yale area.

    I just love Candlewood Lake, I've been to a few weddings there.
