Default Was today the last drive of the year

Well the temp hit 57* so I took the car out for a little exercise. Backed it out of the garage and lowered the top. We did a 50 mile drive and blew out the pipes. Stayed warm inside and a very enjoyable ride. So it's 11/11 in NY's Hudson valley and there are still a few golf courses open. If this is global warming then give me more of it. Next week looks good too so I'll see if I'll take it to golf. The end is near but not yet.

Mid-50's here today too, so top down to work I went!
The weekend looks rainy, so the cat will be indoors for the weekend (just washed her last weekend, so trying to avoid dirtying her up before the winter nap).
Next week looks iffy, so today may have been the last for me, but the top will be down on the way home tonight!

Tomorrow will be my last drive of the year. It's supposed to get up into the 60's and no rain! Besides, I have to pickup the XKR from my detailer.

It was 60 around Boston yesterday. I am not throwing in the towel until the first snow fall.

Beautiful sunny weather here in Southern New Mexico also.

Enjoy the rides as long as everyone can. These are awesome rides.
