    Since John is away skiing and we won't have a Dino Saga this week, I thought since I am the other Dino driver here in Santa Barbara, that I should continue the tradition. In my house we have a tradition that my wife and I started about 33 +/-1 years ago, on xmas night we take one of our roadsters and drive all over to see the xmas lights, we have had to have the top up a few times when it was raining but it never rains in S. California so its not often that the top goes up. This year my daughter is almost 18 (another 3 weeks) and we had to take the boyfriend with us, that makes 4 in a Dino! Luckily we are talking FIAT Dino with a extremely small back seat.

    This year is was not too cold, bank thermometer said 41 as we drove by, I was bundled up a little but for some reason when I drive my Dino I never get cold. Kids were extremely bundled up. It got cold as drove near the beach but that was not long.

    Top job, with captions in the photos too. J. Corbani should be pleased.

    Happy Holidays to all!

    Good job Mike but I will not leave for skiing until the 5th of Jan. and should be back on the 12th. Will have Sagas for the 6th and 13th although the 13th will probably be skinny on cars and heavy on skiing. Your Fiat looks great, nice Christmas color. I don't envy the open top after seeing your passengers. My old bones appreciate the super job I did on my heaters. Am now cosy as can be.
    Imitation is great flattery. Thanks, and Happy New Year.
    John

    Sorry John I thought you were already gone skiing, guess I jumped too soon but on the 5th it will be too late to go see the lights anyway.
