    I know, I know.... some of you went out this weekend because of the great forecast. But when I checked the temp at 11am on Sat. it was around 40 and that wasn't working for me. Temps don't hit their peak until around 2pm. So I took a nice drive today around 2pm ... sun out and 70.


    Tomorrow is looking good too..... Kept her off the lift tonight just in case.

    Well I'm heading into the office so I can't commit to time but I'm thinking around 2pm. G/L on Lexus, we looked at them and thought it was a nice ride, but I'm a Jeep guy.

    I have to head up to Balt in the morning but I put the battery charger on the boat in case I get back early enough. Wouldn't mind running some fresh gas through it. Drive down to Gravely Point and take a spin up to Georgetown in the boat. How often do you get a chance to go boating in January?(around here anyway)

    Just drove the 355 home and back (luckily, I get to go from garage to garage).

    All I can say is, "Wow!" I love the sounds of that engine back there.
