Perfect SC day

I didn't intend to take a drive today, except to air up my tires after a long winter's nap. I think the car turned right instead of left, and I just sorta went along with it.

Top down, 60 degrees, bright sun and a mild breeze. The only thing wrong with it was that it ended. Maybe tomorrow will be the same.

Had to be a good feeling. Wish all the snow would finally melt here and the roads would clear up. Would like to get mine out.

I thought about getting the Vette out today, but decided a better idea would be to plow all the Snow we got last night !! It will be months before we can drive around here.

I was a member of one but got really burned out with the club thing! There's several of us around that get together and do things from time to time. Send me your email info and I'll let you know when we plan something. Mine is patdan@charter.net

I moved to Aiken, near Augusta last fall. I'm missing WA, but am enjoying a dry, mild winter!

I lived in Greenville for a couple years in the 90's. Great town!

With all the snow we have gotten in Jersey, and what we're going to get I don't think I'm driving the Vette until spring of 2012.

I took the cover off and moved it a few feet back and forth in the slush.

Memphis made it to 63* yesterday, and the 4Runner looks like a fur-ball.

So....what a great excuse to get in the AE and take the wife for dinner. It is the first time in almost six-weeks that I have driven. What fun !!!!!
