Top-down day
Got out today with the top down... felt great. What a mental health blessing these cars are...Whatever was bothering me today, went away and didn't return. If I could only get a prescription for it, I could write it off!!! 
Sorry to all who have put their babies to rest for the season...
More good days coming.

I couldn't pass up today either - had a doc appt this morning and on the way there I'm in the jeep lookin at 67 deg on the outside temp. Should have gone back to the office but ran home and took the FRC out, there's a few black stripes out there now - I agree Dave, sure made my week feel better

Went to the optomitrist today and ran 'her ' thru the gears. The car just runs so good.
Andy dialated my pupils and I couldn't see real good coming home but I made it back OK, I think.
These cars seem to run better in cooler weather....everything seems crisper, even the sound of the exhaust. I think endorphins are released when you get behind the wheel of a corvette and your life span is extended a couple of years. Marketing idea ?
Drive a corvette and live longer.

Assuming the roads are okay, I suggest meeting at Georgina's about 11:00 AM, if it is a good time for everyone, but no later than 11:30 AM. We would go 44E, 32N, 190E,171/197E, 169S, and 44W all the way to the Shady Glenn restaurant for crispy cheeseburgers. Or something like that. Do we have a cruise?

Sorry to all who have put their babies to rest for the season... More good days coming. it is mild and even a little glimpse of the sun. but i still can't take it out because Z51 gumby bear tires might cause serious handling problems
until they are warmed up. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
