The Carrera got a bath outside today! First time in a month or more that I haven't been in the garage with the heat cranked up. It actually warmed up here in the Midwest. Got to nearly 60 degrees.
Couldn't pass up this early morning photo op. Gotta love those wide rear fenders of the Carrera S.   | |

Hard to believe that the shortest day of the year is less than a week away.

I'm the topic of conversation for my neighborhood this time of the year, as I'll keep washing the rides as long as water flows from the hose. It's amazing how warm you can stay with a bucket of hot soapy water when the air temp is in the 20's. I always make sure to drain the hose when I'm finished so it's ready for the next time even if it's below freezing.
Just finished washing the Rover as the sun was setting. The weather man says it's in the mid 40's, but the 20mph winds made it pretty darn chilly.

Bummer.... missed a golden opportunity here in central PA..... Had to go to Washington for a funeral at Arlington National. Didn't get back until sunset.... getting cold again. 
Oh well..... worth it I guess to give a great sendoff to a Lt. Commander.
