So envious
It was one below zero in Central New York this morning on the north shore of Oneida Lake near our NY home. Fortunately, we relocated to our Florida home the first few days of January, and will be here through at least mid-April. It was in the high 70s and just delightful here today in the St. Pete/Clearwater area. Life is good, this is what the wife and I each worked over 40 years for.

It's been a pretty mild winter here in south eastern Wisconsin. Seems like all the bad weather has been going south of us. At least so far. That could all change but I'm enjoying it now.

If I could do the day all over again I would have taken the Stingray out for a drive. The temps were cold here today in upstate New York high of 20 degrees, sunny, roads dry with a little trace of salt here and there but it would have came back in the garage still clean. I ended up not driving it because of concern about the tires being too cold. I could have taken it easy and put the car in "weather" mode. Oh well, I missed my chance today.

It looks like Michigan's luck is about to run out There's a chance of heavy snow this coming weekend for the South Eastern part of the state. I guess it's finally time to check the snow blower and making sure it's up to speed.

Southern Ontario is also going to get hit by that massive storm by the looks of it. We have been very lucky this year, other than mid November when we got an early storm, we've had almost no snow, and not very many super cold days either. But we're getting both super cold and snow over the next couple of weeks. It could be a long while before I get my C7 out for another drive

I'm not sure where you live, but good luck driving it in deep snow if your area gets a foot or more this coming weekend. Even with snow tires you won't be going anywhere in that Corvette with it's low ground clearance.

Partly sunny & 50. Crappy for the next 7 days or so with light rain.
No roof, no ride. Will be adding a C7 or C8. Prior Stingray was a C2 '67 Coupe.
