Had enough of the lying weatherman!

Sit back and talk with friends. Same rules as before. Rule #1-Relax with friends on the front or back porch.

Planning my day out to finish up some work on my utility trailer and then this afternoon fire up my ol' Mustang to run it a bit.
Well the sun was coming out around 11:00 AM and it was getting in the 60's then come 1:30 and thinking of Mustang I notice the
dark gray wall of clouds moving in from SWest.
Pull up radar and looks green and coming our way. By 3:30 all overcast sun gone away and temp drops...never made it no where near 70.
No Mustanging today!
I want to get into those 4 bbl. carbs again darn it!!!!
Just can't get out of the gloom!! :(

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Here in Central NYS we haven’t had a spring in a few years. Winter continues through April and summer begins in May.

We've got a pretty good geographic distribution of members here, and it seems like we're ALL ready for winter to be over! And, I'm with you, Shawlerbrook, let's have a few weeks of actual spring this time around. Here it is mid-March in KC and we may see a snow flake or two tomorrow. We got our first measurable snow in mid-October.

Crazy.

I agree, starting to seem like only two seasons any more. :(

Thanks Rifletom! I bought it new in 1985 and it was a 5.0 5spd. bare bones LX. Still original paint all but hood and I built that engine back in 2009.
Supposed to be in the 60's today so might get some seat time!!
