Condolences from the north!!!!
A lot is made of us in the north for the inconvenience of not driving our vettes in the winter. Compared to the weather problems in the south and west not driving our vettes is just an inconvenience ,I really feel bad for the flooded, wind damaged and other stuff you must endure in your state !!! Best luck to you all!!!!!

Most likely the result of an El Nino year. Out here in the NW, we've had over 13.8 inches of rain just this month (a record breaker!). I've had the Vette out just a few times this month when it wasn't a monsoon and flooding conditions.

We are a sunny 84 degrees here in Marco Island ,Fl today and while I am sure you are enjoying Michigan today, I fortunately am not there to enjoy it with you.

You don't need to feel bad for us. There are only occasional days of flooding/storms where we have to keep the car at home. We still get to drive our Vettes 350+ days a year.

Being happy...as a distance runner, its 7:00 am and it is almost 80 degrees. We are still waiting for winter down here. Its not a record as it hit 86 degrees here in 1933.

They are so used to and accepting of the sickness taking over our country they are "blind" to what is happening.
