...arrived in Panama City Beach y'day afternoon...got everything into the townhouse, cleaned up & had dinner at The Breakers.

...after a couple of hours watching tV, in bed by 10pm...& did not wake up until 10pm this morning!

70-degrees....Jack Laird & I are having dinner on one of my favorite restaurants in Grayton Beach tonight.

I'll only have limited internet until next week when I head home.

Short sleeve weather...YAHHHH!!

Not yet, it ain't! Mebbe in another day or two.

Have a fun trip!! :laugh:
 
Blah, hush Doc - been up in the 50s here for a couple of days. Perfect in the sun if the wind isn't blowing - but that's me :wink: I'll admit today was better, it's about 68 out, top down on the Miata, all the house windows open. Except for my allergies it's perfect :laugh:

I think you lost 12 hrs somewhere Tony :devilgrin:
 
Short sleeves??? I've been bundling up all week!! This is the coldest it's been down here for quite some time!! The weekend should be real nice though!
 
I wne to move a car this morning and it was 18Âş. Argh it was cold but then warmed up to the 40's woohoo. I'm still half frozen from the morning. Next location for me is MG friendly that's for sure.
 
Woke up to -20*F. this morning. My parts order from Tony got here yesterday but I think it will be a while before I start installing the pieces. A bit chilly even by Minnesota standards. I'll have to wear a sweater when I go out for coffee this morning.
 
Gee, With the exception of Tony, I guess 54 isn't so bad after hearing you guys. Little chilly though.

The cold Great Lakes wind that Darwin had is starting in here this morning. Wind speed is picking up because we were in the low 40's yesterday and temps will be falling all day.

hehehehe...yep...but, you knew what I meant...oh, slept another 10 hours last night!

&, Doc, I had to go buy some short sleeve shirts - to me, it's short sleeve weather...woke up to 63 this am, supposed to go over 70 by mid-day!
 
My problem is I've got too much Canadian blood in me. I hobbled around outside for a few minutes earlier, 70 and breezy - a nice day :smile:

Everywhere I look down here there are Ontario license plates!
 
Tony;

That's funny, 'cause I was just thinking the same thing about my neighborhood!

Dave :savewave:
 
Only Ontario? No NY, OH, MD, VA? The tourists season must be slipping over on that coast!! :eeek:

Around here it seems to be mostly Quebec, but it's probably 50/50.

There are those also but predominently Ontario.
 
As I said before, Tony, it's the same in my neighborhood.
The difference is, I'm at home (read Ontario) and you are contending with all the blue haired people who drive well under the limits.

Dave :savewave:

P.S. Thanks for helping make our roads safer!

...and just <span style="font-style: italic">why</span> is it that they insist on sitting at a stop sign until the last conceivably safe moment then quickly pull out in front of you (well, <span style="font-style: italic">me</span>) then drive 30 in a 55?

...or, <span style="font-style: italic">or</span> why do they think it's ok to stop in the middle of a 45mph 2-lane road to look at a map or use the cellphone? No, I don't mean <span style="font-style: italic">pull over and stop</span> I mean <span style="font-weight: bold">stop</span> right in the middle of the road like they just hit a deer.

Weird :laugh:
