Default Happy Easter!

The Wife and I have set the table for Easter Sunday. The turkey Butterball (25-lb) is ready to go in the oven soon and the fresh apple pies with cinnamon are being prepared. A cherry pie for one of our guests. Home-made stuffing has been done. Of course using PEI potatoes! I may sneak out a couple of bottles of Canadian Chardonnay as well tomorrow.

It is not Corvette weather yet. Tonight will be -8*C (18*F) and there is still snow on the ground. But there are robins singing so the good temps are coming.

I wish all members a happy and safe Easter weekend. Cherish your Family and your time in this world.

OK, gone for the evening. Standby cook now for the pies, devilled eggs, various thingies, and the like. But I think I will just get out of the way of the Wife! She does these things well.

I'll fool with a points distributor in the basement for awhile. And read some Lars papers. And stare at his February rebuild of a 1974 carb for me. I can't wait to try it.

Sounds like a good plan! No chance of Corvette time here as it is 26*F (-4*C). This winter is going to end...sometime.

The weather here is nice enough to think about a drive but still plenty of snow (and salt) on the ground. Enjoy the time with you family and it'll e spring soon enough!
