Default Happy Monday

What a great start to the week.

I left my home in NJ to head out to Long Island for business at 5 AM!!!!

When I got o LI at about 7:15 I saw a silver C6 at a light and he flashed me the brights and waved. 5 minutes later, while driving thru the office park there were 2 vettes ceperated by a car heading the opposite direction. Both were driven by woman and both waved.

Just was a great way to start a Monday.

Very good and somewhat unusual that the women waved.

Even going back to work on a Monday can be good, but only when driving a Vette.

I've found that NOT going back to work on Monday (Retirement!) and driving a Vette can be really good!!

It is always nice when people wave back or wave first. Now if everyone in this world could do this in any car.

Save the wave.
