Default Cabin Fever
I can’t wait to get my Vette out of the garage.The weather in New Jersey has been really depressing along with this pandemic issue.As soon as the weather breaks the Vette will be in for service and then I can wash and polish it. Headed for the Jersey shore at the end of May and to be with all my kids and grandkids for the summer.

Same here across the Delaware. Pennsylvania - up to now - has one of the worst Spring seasons in memory. Cold, rain, and it won't get better in May reports say. Far below temps for May so the convertible will remain in hibernation for me... Then there's the virus. Ugggh...

I’ve been lucky here in SW Pa. The corvette has been out for a run the last 3 weekends. Great therapy. Hopefully will be able too play golf this weekend.

Hopefully everyone can get their cars out soon - going for a nice long drive is great therapy.

Same here in Cleveland, I take her out for a ride and go for a walk almost everyday anyway. No garage queens in this kingdom!

Took mine out for a cruise to my son's house last night. Got a ticket for 81 in a 65 construction zone. But he didn't write me for double fine for being in a construction zone.
