Default Spring has Sprung

The first day out with my '79. I have been looking forward to this since putting it away in October. I just could not contain my joy, so I thought that I would share it with everyone.

Not rushing Spring here ... much to still do.

It was feeling like Spring, but last night changed all that.
Here is my body and 75 donor sitting in the snow.
