In the spirit of Groundhog's Day

I sprung my MINI out of winter storage this afternoon. We saw our shadow and kept on motoring enjoying every minute with the sunroof open! Might be a bit early, but I'm happy.

Congrats! I bet that felt great.

My Not N MG will come out in another month. Can't wait. The MINI has been doing daily duty no mater what the weather.

Great idea I did not even think to open the roof in my loaner Clubman! Lunch today will be a an open topper!

After a day with the Clubman it is growing on me, but alas I still hate the radio controles the ***** are mis-placed and the buttons are too small :(

It was 47 here in Madison, WI yesterday, so I drove around after work with the roof open & the tunes volume waaay up!

I live near two high schools and most of the kids were walking around without coats & hats as well...

The weather here in Ky. is retarded. It's like a roller coaster. It'll start in the 30's on Monday and gradually go up every day. By Friday it'll get into the 60's and then it'll either A.) immediately drop down to the 30's again and start the process over or B.) gradually get down to the 30's again and start the process over. Feb. is the worst month ever down here. One day shorts and a t-shirt and flip flops, the next... layers of clothes and thermals.

On that note... hopefully the sunroof will open up semi-permanently soon!

No. Dogs are not allowed until absolutely necessary (probably tomorrow ). I did get TREE SAP on the car yesterday! Ack! Ack! Ah well... I declare spring sprung. It will be fun cleaning it up!
