I figured that I'd complain about the weather, too.

This pic was taken outside my window by my desk. now if my car would just magically put itself together so I could drive it...

Agreed. Much windier than back home in Texas (my neck of the woods anyways). And what the hell is salt doing on the roads when it snows???

It's been kinda windy here, and forecast shows that it's to keep up. more or less over the next ten days. smile.gif Thankfully I work in the garage.

JCambo, I watch your planes do touch-n-go's from my back porch. smile.gif Let me know if you need any help or a place to work. Garage to be full here soon, but for the moment, I can clear a bay - bay.5.

It was a bit over 80 degrees and clear over the weekend. Great for taking some short trips down PCH (Highway 1) here in sunny SoCal. I was traveling west on Jamboree Road in Irvine on Saturday - following a red Ferrari, a couple of new model P-cars to my right and a pretty little Audi on my left (license plate "The R8"). On my way back home I found myself in the middle of an english car club rally, completely surrounded by old MG's.

79 today, so I'll be driving my 914 from work with the top off this afternoon.

Supposed to rain for the next couple of days (Tuesday and Wednesday) so it's back to winter for us for a few days.

No complaints here. I took the convettible up to Bear mountain NY. Seems every other person with a convertible did the same. At one point I could see 2 Z3s, 1 Z4, and 2 miatas at once.

but today it's dark as can be. I was thinking I woke up at 5 am or something.

I got out this weekend. Turned out quite nice.

Lovin' the D-jet.

Man, what a difference. Burned 1/2 a tank.

cold and rainy the last few days, finally warm and sunny today. Too bad my 914 still needs a few weeks of work to be functional

Posted by: MDG Apr 9 2009, 04:39 PM

back to sunny spring up here again - drove with the roof off today; I guess Monday and Tuesday was winter's way of giving us one last kick in the nuts until December dry.gif
