Default Nice day ...

Ahhh .. checked the weather forcast - low 60s, no rain. Figured, "what the hay .. lets fire up the Cobra today".

Moved some cars around .. took the car cover off. Pulled out into the driveway - set the parking brake so I could let the motor warm up a bit more. Clicked the garage door opener - put on my leather gloves - blipped the throttle .. and we're off.

Went for my bi-weekly haircut. All the old guys came out to see what was shaking the glass as I parked right up front. Heard a couple of the stories "I remember when those things first came out" or the "I knew someone who had one once .. but it was a REAL one."

Now my ears are getting cold. "Hey, there's a Hooters .. I'm hungry." Ate some hotwings ... which warmed my ears back up. Mumbled under my breath "&%#$" as I went to leave because I didn't have a camera with me .. and it was such a missed opportunity because all the girls came out to giggle and compliment the Cobra ... and apparently if you're only wearing short-shorts and a thin tight T-shirt, then it was still kinda chilly *insert headlights on bright icon here*.

Went to the bank .. not the close one, and took the long way there. On the way .. gave a C5 Corvette owner a lesson in respect.

Returned home - swept out the garage, back her in ... covered her back up .. and waiting for the next halfway warm-sunny day that I have off from work to come around.

Yes, ... it was a nice day.
