I just couldn't do it...
I was planning on washing my Anny up and putting her to sleep but I just couldn't do it. Got to about 53 degrees here in Chicago so I put on a heavier coat and dropped the top. Stopped by the forest preserves and took some pics of my baby! Then I took a nice long drive. Maybe I won't put her away just yet.

Good choice to take a drive. Hopefully you'll get a few more days of nice weather to enjoy the car before you really have to put it in hibernation.

Congrats!! What a great way to spend the day. And thanks for sharing the pics!! Photos look great in the Forest Preserves!!
Unfortunately for me, I am here in my humble home away from home telling myself to get up and turn on the A/C at 4:17 am!! It's 81 degrees inside and tomorrow's expected another high sunny day of 78 degrees.

I put mine away for the winter this past Thursday. I don't know why, but I get to a point in late fall when it's nice to have it out of my garage. Unfortunately, that feeling is always short-lived and I'll wish I could drive it again in a month or so.

No Earlier than November 10th.... Marine Corps Ball....
I wanted to insert a picture of my Coupe with LARGE Marine Corps Eagle Globe and Anchor on rear window, but this damned system asks for a URL to image, and I can't browse to the pictures folder.
Never mind, silly me.... Just read the FAQs.....
Duh
