Stop complaining now! Today it is supposed to get up to 60 and be sunny here. I intend to take the 914 out for the first drive of '05 today (it has rained for the past couple days and washed away all the salt). Tomorrow it is supposed to be a "wintry mix" of rain and snow, high in the mid 30s again (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/barf.gif)

Get this! I arrive in San Diego Saturday with a church youth group. We're going across the border to build houses for the poor. We're camping in tents in an abandoned gravel pit with outhouses and no running water or electricity. We'll be there for 5 days. I hope it doesn't rain.

At least you'll have gravel.

It sounds weird to most "outsiders" but the weather people here are wrong a high percentage of the time just like everywhere else.

Sometimes the "current" temps they report are off by +/-20° or they'll say it's raining outside when it's 90° and sunny/clear or whatever. I can usually make a better prediction by looking out the window, so I generally ignore the websites and tv crap.

My son and I have already paid for High Speed Driving School his Saturday at Sears Point and we are hoping for a break in the rain Saturday. I can't see cutting loose on a wet track. Maybe it will be better for rookies like us is keeping speeds down.

We had a youth group that went there several years ago and probably stayed in the same gravel pit. As I recall, the gravel wasn't so bad, it was the mud everywhere else that was the problem. Really sticky.

I didn't go on the trip but I had the chore of cleaning the vans before they were rerturned to the rent-a-car place. It took a long time but we did fill a couple of low spots in the landscaping with all the crud we got out of the wheel wells.
