Short cruise and photo op.

Got to meet Lonestar, (David) today
and went for a short run to Sonic.
Beautiful day about 80*. A couple of
the carhops wanted a few photos.

Then Dave and I went up to a hill
overlooking Marble and he got a few
shots. Sun was in the wrong spot for
town overshots. That would have to be
a morning thing. On to the pics...

Beautiful shots of 2 gorgeous cars. Glad you guys could get together and enjoy the day. I'd give my left arm or leg right now for some of your 80° weather.

Don't worry June will be there before you know it. Texans will be suffering with 100 degree plus temps (38c ish).

Great pics - glad you two got in some nice cruising for this short-lived warm spell! Will be 80 tomorrow and 20 Sunday night - love those big swings...
I am rebuilding rear brakes during the nice weather so no cruising for me.

Yeah, I keep forgetting that your summers are like a trip to hell. It was only around 47° when I was in Houston last, so it's good to hear you have some decent weather to play with right now. Cruise on bro!

Thanks for the kind words fellas.
And yes, Hell will be here soon enough.
July and August, I will want to come visit
you boys up North for sure.

I serviced my Skeeter for spring yesterday.
Our POA boat ramp is 2 blocks down.
May just have to hit the lake early tomorrow.
Spring in Central Texas is it guys, Love it.
