Re: Spring, Oh Yeah!

I'm jealous. We had a boat-load of rain here this weekend, so I'm going to end up mopping up a little water in the basement instead of wrenching today. The daffodils are starting to break through the soil though, so it won't be long...

Re: Spring, Oh Yeah!

I was working outside on the ground wrenching on my K10 project yesterday. There was a little green thing growing out of the ground beneath the K10. Canada Geese were flying overhead. I could here songbirds in the distance. Guy's out riding their motorcycles ( illegal here unless the tires are winter rated ). At the Auto Parts store where I work, customers were telling us that they had applied for the winter tire exemption permit so they could take their classics out early. There is one week to go till were allowed to drive with summer or 4 season tires.

Re: Spring, Oh Yeah!

SICK!!! We can't seem to get out of winter over here. Got another 6" of snow last night. I can't wait for some nice weather!

Love the '62. That thing's perfect.
