Top down!

82F today, no sign of rain in sight, DAMN I was tired of driving with
the top up.....

I can't believe how much more I enjoy driving with the top down..
here's hoping it'll stay that way for a month or so now.

Would it help if I said I was sorry? Didn't think so, besides, I
wouldn't mean it anyway! Hehehehe...

Literally perfect weather here today too, probably 75 degrees and sunny.

I told the boss to screw off and went for a LONG and spirited drive down
Lime Creek Road and back. Chris D. knows what I'm talking about if he is
still haunting this newsgroup.
Tomorrow does not look good for work either, but I will have to pay for
the gas eventually I guess.......

Don't worry, both me and XS11E will be paying for this nice weather soon
when every metal part of the car that we touch gives us third-degree burns.
I think that some of my skin is still attached to the black metal voodoo
shift knob from August of last summer..... ;-)

Nice work Pat, hope you ran it once for me! Every time I run it it's less
comfortable as the rich folks just keep throwing more and more houses out
there and understandably give dirtier and dirtier looks to the drivers of
vehicles they think might be breaking the speed limit out there.

Maybe we can do a real early morning run one of these weekends?
Weather here is gorgeous too!

Yeah, people are building like crazy out there.

I'm game, Sundays are always better than Saturdays for me, and it is
time to give the thing a tune-up as well.
Oil, spark plugs plugs, tranny fluid, diff. fluid, basically the works.

I hope that you don't plan to keep up. I have added a Vornado, fuel line
magnets, and a HUGE TAK! since the last time you saw the car. :-)

I just got back from Austin today - went up there just to drive my
favorite Austin route and Monday was ideal. I take 2222 out past 620
where it turns into Bullick Hollow, then left on 2769 to Lime Creek,
then tear hell and leather all the way down it to 1431. Take a left
and go past Nameless. About one click before Lago Vista there is a
Texaco on the right. Their lunch counter sells some of the best taco
al pastor I've ever eaten. I love getting out there on a weekday -
much less traffic. Even got a little sunburn on my arms! I take the
dog with me and he enjoys the ride as much as I do. ...is there a
speed limit on Lime Creek? Ooops -Carol

You had your top UP? Wassamada you? I have my top down at least a couple
of times nearly every month. It is amazing what living half of your
adult life in Alaska will do for you. One big thing is that any
temperature above freezing when it isn't actually precipitating on you
starts to look like top-down weather (even if you do have the heater
running full blast).

It was raining or threatening to do so for several weeks and my tonneau
cover isn't very waterproof. It was also below 80F and we all know
human life cannot exist below that temperature.
