I was down around your area on Tuesday. You have more snow than we do up here by Lake Superior. Kinda makes ya feel sick, doesn't it? It's mostly all melted after yesterday and today.

Man, snow in late April really sucks. Hope you get some much warmer weather soon.

Yep. Almost wish I prepped for a photo. The hood is popped for the charger and the roof is unlatched for the gaskets sake. Only pulled it out to work on the C3 above it.

It even sucks down here in SW Louisiana as I'm an old bike rider that still loves getting out on the KLR or Bandit several times a weeks. But, with age, don't really care to be out riding in temps under 70F anymore.
But, at least the truck and vette get more use. And hate to tell ya'll that I'm gripping and it's 55F outside presently and yes, the heater is going to keep my old bones warm.

Here, near Rochester, NY, it was in the 60s yesterday, and briefly touched 70, today....even though it was in the high 30s, low 40s, three-four days ago. At least we haven't gotten any snow in 5-6 days, and have had almost enough rain to wash all the road salt off the streets.

Rain is forecast for the next couple of days, so that SHOULD clean off the roads, and maybe I can get the cars back out of the garage.
