Default Happy New Years!

It seems that no one has done greetings yet so here are mine to the many fine people on the C3 Forum. Have fun but don't drink and drive. Be Well!

From the Great White North. And yes it is white.

Well, it was 5*F yesterday and will be 40*F tomorrow. Today was freezing rain. Very strange weather. The Wife and I are just hunkered down for the evening and enjoying a good Niagara Chardonnay.

You sure that is Toronto <g>.

Sometimes the smaller things in the Corvette hobby can give great delight. Thank you again.

Interesting comment. It has not been the best of times since the 2008 recession for many but with family love and strength many people have pulled through. And will move on to a better future.

I can't imagine those temps this time of year. Today was freezing rain, snow, slush, slip-sliding etc. My DD (Impala) does have four-wheel winter tires but still it was tricky. You must feel blessed.

But I guess you do not in the summer (100*F+). We had one day of that last summer and I really had a hard time coping. It was terrible.

We took a little drive up to Port Severn yesterday to see how things looked. More or less the same here thought. Snow and freezing rain yesterday.
Already hating this winter.
Did get all my blasting done outside though

Maybe those guys down there bragging it up can get sunburns or something so we can feel better

Seriously though, all the best guys

Thru hard work, careful management, and some luck my businesses have done well but that is not what I am most thankful for and proud of.
My family all have their health and are able to pay their bills. I spent Christmas with my 82 year old parents and 78 year old mother in law, but the best are my 4 and 6 year old grandsons. I may not have another year like this so that is why I believe GOD is smiling on us.

Happy New Year to all of you that build, buy, or reclaim!

Keeping the Vette spirit alive is our belief... and keeping our family safe is our calling.

May all of you have a BLESSED New Year!
