    Hey Mark. Fret not. It's Christmas Day here in Omaha and it's 50-some degrees. Give it a couple days and maybe you'll see some of that stuff melt off. These temps are after about 4 or 5 days of single digit temps. Seemed like a summer day today. :TU:

    Doug, it was funny when I was in Miami last week. I was watching the weather forcast when it was 52* and the weatherman acted as he was going to freeze to death. I couldn't believe it, I just lost it thinking this guy is nuts. With running to Florida everyweek I'm planning on moving there as I'm tired of overcast days with freezing temps. I just need to find a good paying trucking company down there and I'm gone! It's amazing how much better you feel when you're soaking in sunshine on days where you can wear shorts without freezing your tail off.

    Comeing home from my parents house late christmas eve the outside temp according to my continental registered as low as -21! When I parked in my driveway just south of I-70 in Englewood/Dayton OH it said -9 and that in town. Talked to my father inlaw on Christmas morning who was in Lorida FL he said it was "down to 50" but that it was suppossed to get up to 75 that day. Yea thanks and Merry Christmas to you to. Hey Mark are you going to bring that purdy green GS to any of Steak & Shake's Wednesdaynigh cruise ins?

    Jim,
    I'm seriously looking into it as my boss is having financial problems that's affecting my income. This coming week is my last and I really love running down to Florida. I basically run down to Miami everyweek delivering to places at 112 st. & 125 st. along 32nd avenue. I checked out Watkins which is located in Lakeland, but I'm going to have to checkout places farther south. I'm taking a couple weeks off at the beginning of the year so I can finish my car up and finally drive it. I just have to put the front sheetmetal on and bolt the driveshaft in. With being home for 1 1/2 days a week it's difficult to accomplish anything. After my two weeks vacation I'm searching for a job in Florida.

    The drive home on I35 was getting pretty bad Wednesday. :3gears: Ended up with what seemed like a foot of snow on the ground in my backyard. I love snow in Texas! It stays around for a couple of days and then goes away. Still had some snow on the ground Christmas....

    Yeah Vern I plan to make it as much as possible. I wasn't able to this past summer. Want to get it freshened up first, especially with dual exhaust.

    Seems that the guy with the 62 Polara 500 is attracting more and more
    B-bodies each week. Gotta get more Buicks there. :TU:
    I'll look you up when I go.
