Had alol intentions of moving the Spyder from the backyard to the garage today so I could install my new Yoshimura exhaust and go for a ride. the sun is shining, the temp is near 30f. STUPID SNOW AND MUD!!!!!! Couldn't get it up the wee hill, through the gate, unto the sidewalk. So, back to it's parking spot on the patio, wash off all the mud, put the cover back over it, reconnect the battery tender, gp basck inside and take my frustration out on the bagpipe. gotta practice for a gig anyway. But the Spyder would have been more fun!

Yes have to agree
Sand , salt , lawns of snow
Spyders too new to dip in it
Been tempted but don't want to junk up the underdog
Hopefully things thaw soon.
Picked up January
Looking forward to a 45 degree heatwave

Sorry, need a better link than that. I can't find it! I like bagpipe music. Lived in England for a year in '88/89. One regret was I never had the chance to listen to a live bagpipe band.

I really am not trying to make you feel bad [like hell!] but I took the snowplow off my ATV a couple of days ago. Laid down on the grass to pull the attachment pins out!

Actually, you poor souls in the East, especially the NE, have gotten a lot of the snow we should have gotten here in the West! Much of the west will have water supply problems again this year.

Well now, I don't know how to post a link, but I can give you a better path to follow. The straight and narrow is as follows:

youtube.com > search for 'hills of argyll' > scroll down until you reach the performance by 'kepupc'. click and enjoy.
