    Took advantage of the mid 50's temps in NW Ohio, and washed/waxed/polished the Coop. Always time well spent. :D

    I looked at my car today all warm and waxed as I shoved snow from my driveway.

    I am safe and I am kind of in the sticks but the area is getting built up. My next step out would be to Lancaster PA but the Amish do not have high speed fiber optic Internet service available. :lol:

    Sorry, I must have missed the part where he said he was ‘driving like a maniac thru a roundabout’.
    Any deterioration in surface conditions should warrant these not only ay the track, but on the road as well:

    Does the time it took to fix locking the keys in the car count towards the total?

    I think I found the cause of the creaking in the front end. Now it's time for some tacos, then reassembly and a test drive.

    Added 6 oz. of coolant to the reservoir in my S and checked to make sure they had painted my new scoop correctly [and they did]. Took my wife's S out to get a low tire fixed and found that the bead on the rim was leaking...all is well now, tires are all aired up with nitrogen and life is good again. It was a busy day, but a good one.:Thumbsup:

    Changed the power steering hoses today. No brake work yet as the parts I have don't appear to be of any benefit to install... No rain as the weatherman had insisted, therefore I skated on having to wash the car and mop the floor. At least the day was mostly a success.

    Took Scooter and washed and Hydro'd the heck out of him yesterday, today I cleaned all the windows again after a short fun drive to the range.

    Tonight, we took Pat's Countryman to the MINI5280 Club Christmas Party/Jubilee at the local Baker Street Pub, proper British food was served. Fun, very good time, lots of raffle items given to most everyone.

    Good night. :)
