Flav,
When I was with the Government I put the car away on Rememberance Day as that is a holiday for public servants. And that was pushing it a bit late in my opinion. Really I do not enjoy driving the Vette in below freezing point conditions. So now it is the end of October. How is the back coming along?

Took out the C5 yesterday. No rain/snow (it went under us) so I had dry conditions. Cold, but dry. I think it's going to be a loooooonnnnggg winter :(
Paul: That item I talked to you about is shipping today.

Thanks Dep. I look forward to receipt.
It's started! Here is the front lawn this evening. More to come on Wednesday. The salt trucks were out today. Got the Corvette away just in time.

Geez Paul, it's a good thing you got your car in storage. We are lucky down here. Worst we are getting is frost on the car windows in the morning.
They are actually predicting it will go up in the 50's later on this week.
I'm still being bombarded by falling leaves. Got to go up and clean the gutters (again) on the house and garage.

More snow and the possibility of freezing rain tomorrow. I am very glad that my Corvette is sleeping!
