Hi Folks;

Here in NE PA approx. 65 today: I did`nt get a chance to get My TR4A out but I did get a chance to tune My `01 Mazda MPV Van!! What a Blast that was!! Spring is definitely in the Air on the East Coast: Next several days a bit cooler & Wet: Forecast is for 40-45deg comes the weekend & Sunny on Sunday: The TR will "For Sure" be out visiting with Her "Alfa-Romeo" friends:

See Ya All Later;

Russ

There in the East you are getting the Wisconsin weather that we are having now. Look for it to chill down a bit in the first part of the week. Maybe some sleet or a bit of lite snow.

Sucks doesn't it. We'll just have to wait a little longer for mud season. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Well you should see my driveway after the thaw and rain these past few days. MUD season is here! Needed 4-wheel drive to get the truck out today so's not to leave too big a rut. Need a freeze, gradual thaw, and a lot of wind. Forget the 8-12 inches of snow I hope their lyin' about. I think the grocery stores pay em extra to make this stuff up!

Here in Canada, (north shore of Lake Erie) there is just a dusting, nothing more. This will make the sled dogs angry. At least my "B" can stay outside.

Sorry Russ,

Yeah, O-k, now I have a fine messy mixture of mud and lots of snow. I was really tryin for utter denial here! Snow? What snow?

I guess the guy slidin' backwards down the hill as I passed him this afternoon should have given me a clue? Why do people try to drive up steep hills in 2 w.d. cars when it's solid ice?

I just trampled down the snow in the driveway with the four wheel drive engaged again...completely depressed and not into shoveling!

Shoveling? Whats that nonsense? My A.T.V. {Yamaha 4x4 450 Kodiac} with the snow blade attached make for NO more shoveling EVER! In fact If I wanted to use it to remove the snow from my driveway I`d have to wrestle my two boys for a turn. BUT ..... I`m perfectly willing to let them have at it /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif. Spring has sprung early here in the Rocky`s {thats not to say there will be NO more snow} for now we are in the mid to upper 60`s {Really Nice}! The sad part is ..... my TR-3 is so FAR away from driveable it really sux! The good part is I am preparing to get started on it again now that my hands won`t stick to the wernches like a tongue to an icecube tray. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif

We had about 2 inches over night and now it's gone. That doesn't mean that there isn't snow on the ground, but the dusting is gone. Got up to 34 today. Still have a long way to go. The snow ya'll are getting in the east skirted us here in WI. I never think that spring is really here till the middle of June.
