Default Awesome Shop View!

Man, what an awesome view we have from our shop today Plenty of snow still in the foothills, yet warm & dry enough to take the Vette out for lunch with the top off. Think I'll take a nice little lunch cruise, then come back and work on more black outs
Enjoy all!
Richard

You're lucky to have a view like that outside your work.

Richard,

It looks like you are too busy playing on the computer to get any work done!! You should have just kept cruising in the Vette .....
