Classic blue and white with a hardtop??? Maybe my boss, Jim. He drive his like it's a Tarus. A REALLY fast Tarus... I just mean he drives it year round, as long as the roads are clear.
He may have even been up in the Rochester area recently.
Most likley it was another one though. I think his was in the parking lot at work all day friday
 
Red with white strips. I haven't seen it around before, I suspect he got it recently and just couldn't resist! I know I wouldn't be able to, if my car had been on tires, I would have been on the road.
 
Winter (well, for Florida) comes back tomorrow. Lows in the 40s then high 30s the next couple of nights. Things are back to normal.
 
About time, will warm up again then just about time my remaining parts get here. Good deal.
 
Just caught the weather forecast, apparently the folks in southern Ontario are going to get a bunch of snow (perhaps parts of the northern U.S. as well?)

And I'm bracing for the arctic air coming into Calgary later on this week, some brrrr temperatures expected
 
Our coldest day here in RI has been about 45 with a low of 35-37. I played golf this weekend in the high 60's on Sat and high 50's on Sunday. This is unbelievable.

And nobody believed poor Al Gore about inventing the internet either.
 
Well, we're getting back to normal here. It's hovering around the freezing mark, and there's flurries in the air... Winter's coming after all.
 
Yes El-Ninos has made it nice for us...but I fear the plants are getting confused. Lotsa buds popping on the vegetation here.

Saturday, I ran the Miata top down all day. Saw lots of other folks out with their toys.
Many, many bikes including a Ducati and then, later, two more Ducatis and a real R90S. Plus plenty of Hondas, Harleys, etc.
Also, a nice 360 Ferrari, two Z3s (top down) some old Corvettes, several hot-rods, a big Healey and a decent-looking, black TR-3 with the top down (I gave him the thumbs up and he waved back).

This afternoon, it's getting windy and cold....back to business as usual.
 
Yup...back to normal, sort of. Was at 80 around 12:30, by 3 it was down to 71. 55 and dropping now.
 
The thermometer in my truck said is was 83 degrees today. Real nice but it looks like my part of the world is due for some rain by weeks end. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif
 
Snapped this pic last evening after I came out from dinner.

It came out of the blue......Big flakes & a COLD ride!

YIKES! You gonna start keepin' a sno-blower inna boot?
 
All those fond memories of western Pa. gushing back Doc?

I like to make sure the car is OK, so I'll warm it up in the garage once a month and go for a quick blast down to the local 7-11.

(For hot coffee)

Yea...I get some strange looks.

(But I never have to un-stick the clutch or other stuff when summer rolls around)
