Being so close to Spring Road and the parade we got roped into today's festivities and we were partying from 11 am until 4 pm.

Funny, my wife did a fun run in AH and is now sleeping in her chair!!

If I had a dog, I'd be walking it!!

Was a good weekend, Viper was out Friday and was ripping around my 2016 Mustang GT all day today (what a fun car with its manual trans and 3.73 gears), and went to Church and then blasted out to the Kane County Gunshow, with a the sun beaming all day (and weekend).

Let the countdown continue:

Just 21 days now until April 1st and only 9 days until the first (official) day of spring (March 20th)!

Took the 66 out for a short spin over the weekend! If the weather continues to improve, I may get the 01 out later this week.

We got about 1/2 inch of snow that has stopped here in Chicagoland this afternoon, that did not stick to the streets, and I am cautiously optimistic that no fresh salt will be thrown down overnight. If that is the case we look great for more fun car weather driving her the next 7 days (here in mid-March which is always a great thing for this time of year)!



Let the countdown continue:

Just 19 days now until April 1st and only 7 days until the first (official) day of spring (March 20th)!

I think I'll be lucky to be able to drive to the dealer on the 30th. The 10 day forecast does not look good, and that takes it to the 23rd...

Bad news, looks like they laid down fresh salt overnight.

Good news is that its nothing we can't handle for this time of year and more importantly:

Just 18 days now until April 1st and only 6 days until the first (official) day of spring (March 20th)!

^^^^^^Ouch Jeff's 64, that's painful.

My Viper and Mustang are both out for this weekend as the roads are in very decent shape for this time of year (in the Midwest) and was driving the Viper this Friday afternoon.


Let the countdown continue:

Just 16 days now until April 1st and only 4 days until the first (official) day of spring (March 20th)!
