I just talked to friends in O.C.,Md. for the show this weekend. 30 mph winds and rain and they said all the cars are coated with sand. They said that their car parked under roof at a condo was covered in sand.

Gee, sunny and blue sky here! ( ) And go figure, with our daughter flying in for a visit in a couple weeks the better half is on a clean-the-house mission today. I'd take a cruise without her but I do want some time to watch the Bills get whipped later today so I guess I'll keep her happy.

Head north and west Redvette, no snow up here yet!

When the rains end it'll just keep coming down as snow. Thats Life at this time of year here in the Northeast (and most anyplace else outside the "sun belt").

Just park the thing and begin spending the winter polishing on it, unless you are like Some of us and bolt the snow tires on and keep going

Someday I'll move back to Florida, and I'll have to worry again about the sun killing the paint (and the interior), salt dew, snowbirds and all the rest. Meanwhile I'm enjoying roads that Are NOT all flat and straight (not only Corners but actual elevation changes, imagine that!), the change of seasons (well, I could pass on Mud season..) and driving around with the Top Off in the summer - without baking.
