Not... itchin for for more sunny days lately. Won't be long though I'm sure. The nice thing about spring is less bugs on the windshield.

Oh it was warm enough, didn't wear my speedo, but it was still warm enough. Actually the HOA has requested that I no longer wear my speedo while washing my cars. Apparently it has frighten some of the children and women folk. Damn HOA, ruins all the fun!
This isn't supposed to be a big snow is it? I'm still leaving on Wednesday for AMVIV whether I have to shovel my way out of Colorado or not!

Nice in Louisville today, washed and de-butterflied Scooter. Weather looks to be hanging on the mountains and out east.

I like a nice day like today to do a good cleanup.

Note what is falling today in our area. We have about 2 inches of wet stuff, but it is not sticking to the roadways. Hummm, did I jinx it with my comment on Sunday.

But the MINI is very clean and not going out until Tuesday, if I can help it.

I think you did jinx things a little, but I put a new coat of Epic on Saturday, so I didn't help much either.

It's finally stopped snowing here. Personally - I'm ready for some sun. I did hear Monday was going to be in the 70's!! Woohoo!!
Sadly I have to work. Work always gets in the way of my fun.
