So sad Unhappy  2nd year in a row that I couldn't drive my Pacer to work.  The rain was too much yesterday and last year I think I was out of town.  Well maybe next year.

I took mine to the college, and one other instructor took his C4.  I saw another C3 while at work, but didn't see another Vette on the road.

We did a make up on Saturday. 70's, sunny and dry air. This day ranked in the top ten for the year. Up the coast of Maine or up and down if you look at a map. It don't get any better. No other C3's. One wave out of 3 C5's.

Couldn't drive either Vette to work last Friday 'cause we were still on vacation...!!!  Drove "The Beast" from Boulder, CO to Wall, SD so had plenty of seat time.  Only saw a couple of other Vettes on the road.

Ditto here.
 
Just worked out that I was passing through Effingham, IL (home of Mid-America) on Friday, so I stopped to pay them a visit.
 
I asked the kid working in the store if he drove his Vette to work. I couldn't believe him when he said he didn't have a Vette!!!
 
There was an old timer (guy my age) working in the store and he drove his newer Vette to work.
 
Got some nice pics while I was there.
