Default Dropped her off at storage yesterday.

I don't think my car wants me going to 'the Gulf'.

2 weeks ago cord started showing on one of it's tires. OK I've got others, but I kept these one since they're the ones I'm storing it on anyways.

Last week the clutch started slipping.

Friday my passenger window got stuck in the down position, and this it the 1st weekend all summer that's it raining. Note: I'm current up the the SoCal high desert!

So, even though my flight isn't leaving till Wed afternoon. I got a rental car to take my too the airport, and put her into storage.

Nice place, plenty of room for both the Vette, and all my stuff.

Thanks guys

Well I made it!

Business class rocks BTW.
reclining chair with built in back massage, and personal TV!

You need all that on a 20hr trip!

'The Gulf' isn't too bad, at least so far, I've only been here one day

Yes Business Class does but I kind of miss the jump seats and sleeping on the pallets...

The natives can drink, they just do it discretely.

Ah yes, the business class shuffle... I prefer it to rackin' out in a C5 or sitting in the jump seat on a C130. "Those were the days...."

Watch your Six out there!
