Default Ready for spring/summer




Well the last two years my sojourn to Arizona has been disappointing. The wx has been windy and then cool till the next wind storm, soooo. Decided to stay home for the winter. Well now the days have been tempting me. I usually drive my Porsche 911 or Classic Mini Cooper on the good dry days (Pickup when it's wet) and keep the Hemi/Vette covered but yesterday I pulled the cover and it was so nice to see that big ole thumper right there ready to drive, oh after I reconnect the battery.

Yellow stripe on black is awesome. First saw it in the '90s on a '69 Camaro SS. I can't figure out why more people don't use the yellow stripes.

Well I was hoping, maybe a nice sunny day and now I have 5" of snow in my yard.
