January cruising

Well we had November and what became December cruising, so now....
A balmy 59 in here in Lansing we had .75 in of rain Thursday night into Friday, so no salt on the roads. Also had to burn off some fuel, the vent was pushing out fuel due to warm temp expansion.

It was in the middle to upper seventies yesterday where I live. I saw folks driving around with their convertible tops down. I had the top down on my convertible a day or two before Christmas as well.

Crazy weather this year.

I was going to take my car out but about time I was able to get arond to it, the sky already clouded over and temps went from 54 down to 40 and it looked like sleet was right around the corner, bummer as I was hoping to take it out for a 10th month in a row.

Gotta love Texas, I drive mine everyday as long as the temps are 40+ as I have not gotten around to hooking up the choke cable yet. Sometimes I feel like Paw Kettle, I'll get around to it someday.

Took mine out for a short drive on Wednesday. I finally got the interior back in after my console project. The car was filthy after sitting in the garage without a cover, so I actually got a chance to wash it outside! It almost killed me because I was coming down with the flue, but it was nice to get the cover back on a clean car. Unfortunately I've been sick in bed ever since Damn flue going around here.

Car is in the garage with the top down in the lets go somewhere mode but the temp has been about 20 degrees in the morning and all of 30 in the afternoon for a week now, before that it snowed 2 feet. I'm tough but not that tough. If it doesn't warm up soon I'll put it away for winter for good.....Tedd
