Default Weekend roadtrip photos

So my wife and I took our first roadtrip with the Z this weekend. We of course picked the weekend that it snowed, hailed, sleeted and rained, but when it wasn't doing one of the above there was a little sunshine that popped up. Just put on new shoes, yes I know I need some spacers, that's next week, but here are some photos.

Thanks for the comments, it is greatly appreciated. Even though the weather sucked and made the car filthy it also made for some great photos.

Great pics showing both color & B&W pics. Do you really think the blue ball on the hat in Pics 4 and 5 really goes with the theme of the day trip???

Really good pics, they turned out nice! My wife and i have yet to take out the Z on its first trip but I sure hope we don't hit all the weather you did. Hopefully the hail didn't do anything.

Again, the comments are much appreciated. Yes, that is my wife, under about 4 layers of jacket, sweatshirts and other heavy clothing. Actually the trip was quite nice despite the weather when it did rain it only lasted a few minutes, same with the snow and hail, but the weather just kept changing every 30 minutes or so. So I would put the top down when the sun came out and then have to pull over a few minutes later to put it back up. There were a couple of times when we had to take a highway where we got rained and hailed on, as long as we were moving the rain didn't get us wet, but the hail sure didn't have a problem breaking through the wind barrier and pelting me in the forehead .

Thanks again for the great comments, it's always great to have your work appreciated. This weekend I am having spacers put on my wheels so I will definitely be taking some more photos soon.
About my wife looking like a terrorist or stalker. . . well I have to agree . It was a crazy weekend and of course I insist on having the top down as much as possible. At the beach the wind was blowing so hard that you actually had to lean into the wind to stand up straight. Maybe next time I'll get a photo of her with the car not looking like a terrorist.
