Ok mine is here. Looked at it when I parked it and one of the back road hat a bit of Cow dodo. Just a bit but I could not stand it. I went out at first break and cleaned it!
I will not do that route on the way home! Shocked

Didn't drive mine - weather liars said 40% chance of thunder storms. Of course, not a drop of rainAngry. But I did see a group of about 10 parked at the local Hooters as I drove by today.

I was going to drive mine but there was a 50 % chance of rain and thunderstorms, That NEVER HAPPENED!! so I decided on a late evening drive. Grabbed the keys for the vette and left the keys to the door.Censored So I had to brteak into my own house after a nice leizurly long drive!

Okay, so we took Blizz out for a spin and to dinner. When dinner was over I comae out to a torrential downpour. ( I got soaked to my skivies getting to the car.

Bright side is I don't have to wash the car now. I brought it home shammied it down and hung her red nylons up to dry.

Gave me a chance to Dry her off and put on the new red leather bra...

Always something positive in every negative..... Ah..... "Life Is Good..... !"

So that I would remember, I just wrote Vette on the calendar at work for Friday.  One of my employees was on vacation last week and came in in on Monday and asked what that meant.   I told her I was reminding myself to drive my car that day and that it was a national event.  She asked "what if you don't have one to drive?".  One of my other employees just said "then you are just a f****** loser".
