It was a beautiful day with temps approaching 70. Took my son (8 yo) to lunch and a birthday party for one of his buddies. This evening, temps have dropped into the low 40s, and I took the roadster to pick up some carryout, enjoying the beautiful but cool sunset reflecting in Miller's paint job.

The remainder of the week gets windy and much colder, and with holiday travel coming up, I decided to throw the cover on after dinner so the snake can get in a brief hibernation until the new year.

On a different note, I'll be placing an order for a 4-post lift tomorrow with install in early January! Going with a Bendpak HD 9 and will add a trolley jack in the future.

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas celebrating the birth of the Lord and a happy new year!

I was going to say that you could spend the winter cleaning up your garage. But I see that that is already done.

I feel for the guys that have to put their cars away for winter. A lift for Christmas......NICE!

Very nice - nice shine on the paint too! I too feel for the folks that have to put them away for a season. Having said that, June - September most times it's just too hot or wet to take her out.
