I just love my green vette. It makes me feel young again! :crazy
Nothing like driving with the top down and the cold wind
blowing thru my silver locks.

But a question to the forum....What do I do about getting sunburned while drivng to Fallon??

And today is my birthday!!!!!

You probably didn't realize that the green vettes are ment to be driven every day. Wear a ball cap to help with sunburn
