Let's go drive around in the rain tonight!

I was going to wash the Z after last weekend, but things have been hectic. At least I have time this weekend to do stuff.

Yeah mine could use a wash too, maybe a wax job as well but it has been so crappy out and threatening to rain that i haven't had the courage to do it. Tomorrow I pick up my winter beater S60R and I am pumped! I will post pics once i have a chance to wash her too :-)

I was wondering what car you got. Sounds nice. Can't wait to see it.

Steve, it's about damn time you got a cool email. Your charter one keeps kicking back to me.

Dudes, I found a new road for an easy cruise. It's Bass Lake Rd in Bloomington. We can start it just off 494 and head south into the twisties. The road is awesome. I drove it in the Z yesterday.

Nice, I like it! We should plan it for something soon since it is probably going to snow early this year.

I can't believe you said the 's' word!

Can't do the drive until probably next weekend if you guys are interested. The road goes through the Hyland Park Nature Reserve among other parks, so there's plenty of ops for pics.

October 4th might be good. This month has all kinds of stuff going on for me. It's the end of the fiscal year for us, I've got training out of town, parties, and work going on every weekend.
