If the weather forecast for my area holds I won't be going anywhere any time soon. It's been raining on and off for the last 3 days. And it's been raining none stop since yesterday  To make matters even worse, It's suppose to continue to rain until the end of next week. This  the big one.

Remember, the real objective is to have as many Vettes on the road that day so people see lots of Vettes.
Even if you don't go to work, drive your Vette.
Even if it is raining, drive your Vette.
Park it where lots of people will see it.
Go cruising all day.
Have FUN!!!

It's  pouring. If I had gone to PF I would have roasted (AC not working) and I would have been wet (typical Vette leaks) I need a nice ride to Bear Mountain, or even around the friggin block. Talk about cabin fever
