Default Groundhog Day

Sunshine and some rain to wash away the salt. Weather in Chicago finally warm enough to take the car out of the garage after a 3 month hibernation.

It’s always nice when you get a warm day in the middle of winter and an opportunity to pull the 911 out of the garage.

It was 60 degrees and sunny here last weekend, so I had an opportunity to thoroughly hand wash and detail my car in the driveway. I’d love to go for a drive today, but it’s 21 degrees and snowing here.

Enjoy the warm day!

Dennis,

I am hoping like hell that we are at the end of Winter, and not in the middle. I had enough of Winter, about 2 days in.

I want a little more winter. I’m driving over to Beaver Creek to ski for a couple of days. I’m not quite ready for the snow to stop. That said, I’m looking forward to some warm spring days and top down cruising.

Finally getting some nice snow falls this week. I’m not ready for the ski season to wind down — and we need snowpack now for summer water. But I’m getting the itch to drive my 911.

Its season number four, and the trade off for July and August that are delightfully pleasant.

Always nice to get out and get some of that grime off especially after a harsh winter. What color is that and which wheels are those? OEM ones? Look different than what I've seen on 991.1 and 991.2's before. Great looking car though! Enjoy!

Groundhog Day? You mean when you wake up the same time every morning and go out and wash the car and this goes on a million times, washing it over and over again, until finally the car lets you drive it?
