I totally understand how you feel!
Everytime I open the garage to get into my other car, I catch myself talking (out loud too) to the vette "don't worry baby, spring will be here soon!!"

Thanks for the update and keep the countdown going !!!

Sitting at the AC Lounge waiting for my 8:15pm flight to Paris as I type.

Heading out to Senegal, Africa. Will be traveling back and forth over the course of the year. Probably 2-3 weeks there and then 2-3 weeks back.

I will be around for some of the HDR's hopefully, schedule and weather permitting.

The winter has been killing me...

I brought the Fellows home just in time to park for the winter! There's two in the garage taunting me every time I go out there.

The +10 weather the last two weeks isn't helping any either.
