I know the weather is still semi-decent here, but there was already salt and sand on the way to storage, so I don't feel AS bad.

I think you picked a good time Corrado, the weather this weekend looks like exactly the kind of weather where they are going to dump crap loads of salt down, and it's going to be a lot cooler, so the roads probably won't be clean for a while now. I took mine to work on Monday and figured that was probably the last time I'll drive it for a while. I'm hoping to get it out a few times between now and spring though, but it will need to rain good enough so that the salt gets washed away first. I hate this time of year so much

Mine is snoring away in the garage however today would be a good day to get it out. Feels like spring.

Snow on the way for the weekend. Still trying to remember what I did with the plough for the quad.

Had mine out today for a run to Cambridge as it was a nice day for a cruise but probably going into storage tomorrow. I feel the pain but the trunk of a corvette is no place to keep my curling brooms.

How many more days to opening day Pat? Or are you counting until the opening of spring training?

I think it's probably something like 140 days or so until the first home game (April 8th) and I can't wait! Unfortunately we won't be able to see any spring training games, we are going to Florida this winter but it is on Family Day weekend in February so we'll be there too early to see any baseball. But we intend on seeing spring training games every year when we retire in Florida! Whatever Corvette I own at that time (a C8 maybe?) will come with us too so there will be no winter storage necessary. I see a lot of Corvettes in Florida with Ontario plates, so I think there are a lot of people just like me that hate winter so much that they gotta get the heck out of this frozen wasteland for a few months!
