Your not alone  it rained here Friday and Saturday, and Tuesday and part of yesterday It hasn't rained this much in years..

Well this may be a good thing for your region, really, Jim ! It has been very dry over here. weather is in the 50s, but quite some wind chill. maybe getting in the 60s next week, so could be a good time to get out do some TLC and work around the cars...

They have declared the drought is over for most of the state now, and a lot of it is flooding already and the snow hasn't even started to melt which will make it worst. My area isn't effected so I got out and worked on my truck yesterday and will do more today 

[djfordmanjack]

Glad to know you are not affected by the bad weather so much Jim.
Was able to spend a wonderful Sunday afternoon today in 60 degrees, bib and shirt, washing cleaning, adding oil, wiping tires and polishing some stainless and chrome !
I love polishing chrome on a lazy Sunday afternoon. It is about the most brainless, useless work you can think of, but there isn't hardly anything more relaxing (for me personally), than spend an hour or two on a single piece of old Ford trim.... Obviously I am a lucky man. There are dozens of Sunday afternoon polishing hours worth left on that big ole tank....

Looking good DJ. I had a relaxing weekend also........put 200 miles on the '57 going nowhere in particular, just rides away from the city in ranch country. We got a day or two of badly needed rain this past week.

The weekend before Easter we had our first local car cruise. A friend of mine caught me, just having too much fun....
Honestly, the 57 is one of my all time favorite cars. I love the seating position, the view out the wraparound windshield, the hood gunsight and fender tips, the huge wagon cargo space behind you, the way it steers, rolls, shifts, sounds...I just love the 57 !!!

"Too much fun"? WHAAAT???

[hiball3985]

Outstanding, glad you got it out and had fun. I've only driven around town locally, no road trips yet this year.

HOW does one have "too much fun"?
Good to see you were able to get out and do some cruisin'!

Looking good, G!  Glad you were able to take her out for a cruise.

[djfordmanjack]

Thanx, everybody !
Well, maybe not TOO much fun, but plenty....
The 57 wasn't the only car I brought that day. The place is very close- just a few miles. so I made it a habit to show up every 30 minutes in another car, cruise the lot, wave my friends hello and good bye, and repeat...and repeat...andrepeat....hahaha. It was all good fun for laughs and a running gag all evening long. Sometimes it's good to be just acting stupid like a kid. It makes life more pleasant!

No reason to act like an adult until forced to do so.
