Spring has sprung!

Dig out the shorts and t-shirts. Spring is here! I think the worst of the nasty wet cold crap is over. It's around 70deg. here, and supposed to be 80 by Saturday. I drove my truck today and shot these when I went home on my lunch break(Yes, I live a mile from my work). I figured the blooming Bradford Pears made a decent Spring shot.

Post up your springtime pics with your rides.

Re: Spring has sprung!

Matt, we're experiencing the same weather here, and only wish I lived a mile from home.

Unfortunately rain is going to end the week and kill all of Saturday but it's supposed to clear up on Easter Sunday.

Great pics, one of my favorite steppers!

Re: Spring has sprung!

Some pics of my 69 CST-10 after spending the better part of the Winter in the Garage... The day after I took these pics it was cold and rainy... a perfect time to spend 5 hours changing the engine oil, transmission fluid and filter, and rear end oil...

Today in Lafayette, IN it's 75 and Sunny... A perfect day to drive the truck to work with the Windows down... Bring on the Nice weather and car show season!

Re: Spring has sprung!

Yeah! Shorts and a tank top for me. I think I'll just pull the top off of the Blazer and head on up to the mountains.

It's not like it snowed last night or anything, right?

Re: Spring has sprung!

Took this over the weekend... mainly just showing off the new shoes rather than the budding flowers/trees.

Re: Spring has sprung!

it's like 84 here today. I'll probably pull mine out of the garage to do some sanding- still not a driver yet...

Good eye-actually it's a Magpie, though. I didn't even see it 'till after I snapped the picture. The Robins picked a bad week to return. It has snowed for a week solid here. Supposed to be done now for awhile they said on the weather tonight.

Wow-even snowed on Beezleburb down in St. George! Kinda rare in Janurary-pretty much unheard of in April LOL
