Default Today the Mustangs were actually cooler than the Vettes

Sheesh here in the Pacific Northwest and particularly here in the convergence zone around Seattle it's been cold and rainy for the past 6 months. Only two sunny days so far. Fortunately one of them was yesterday where we had Vettes & Mustang day at Boeing (Paine)field. Today it's raining again

Here were some of the vettes: whoa look at that green one




and here are the Mustangs:

So I have to wait until you get your first hard freeze to start in on you again? When does that happen.....about the first week of August?

BTW....weatherbug now says 101 and climbing.

Yes, another cold wet Spring in the Pacific NW. The weather and the local politics are ridiculous here. I'm going to retire in 5-10 years and then I'm heading south. Hold a spot for me down there, fellas. I'll bring the beer.
