Default Took these pictures today.

Hey guys, I decided to take the Vette out on a fun little drive today with my brother. We we’re originally going to go from Everett to Snohomish, but decided to take back roads to Granite Falls and then went to Arlington taking Jordan Road. We eventually went to Darrington where I pulled over onto a side road for some quick pictures.

Overall it was an awesome drive which I highly recommend for anyone in the area.

Glad someone took full advantage of the weather today - I mowed my 2 acres of grass... So I guess you could say I went for a drive.

Thanks for the pics! Sounds like a nice drive.

Thanks guys, I had a blast.

It was a good day to mow the lawn though Aaron. Living in an apartment makes me miss yard work. I know I’ll regret saying that a few years down the road when I have a house hahah.

Jeez, Aaron. You should have called me. It was a near perfect day to come over and drink your beer and play with the dogs while watching you mow your lawn.

Sun dog and the mountains in the first shot make that one pretty sweet. It was a nice day, wasn't it?

Yeah it definitely was a nice day. Hopefully after all this rain the next week or so we’ll get some more spring days. That spot was really pretty. I was hoping the mountains “popped” a bit more in the pictures though. But the halo from the sun did make a cool effect.

Thanks! Im enjoying it so far. Just got it last month and saturday was the first time I really got to spend some good seat time in it. I sold my pristine 2002 6sp electron blue vette 3 years ago. Really missed it. Loved that car. This one was its replacement. Hope to see you around this summer also.

My husband has a 2014 like yours which he bought new. Had a C6 before that. Really like the C7. I have a C5, but the C7 is really a better car than the C5 or C6!! Get lots of appreciative looks and comments for the C7!!

I love Electron Blue. I wanted one but couldn’t find any without tan interior or a White convertible with red interior. I never thought I’d get Millennium Yellow. Normally I can’t stand yellow cars, but when I saw my car I fell in love. I’ll eventually upgrade to a C5Z or a C6/7.

Not yet, I can’t wait to take the car east of the mountains this spring/summer. I know of another car exactly like mine except it’s an 03 I believe in the area.

Thanks! That one I just stuck my phone right in the middle of the windshield and barely sticking the camera part above it.
