Top Down Late November Day

We drove down town at noon today to do our produce shopping under a clear sunny sky and 8 degrees C (46 F) .

About the lowest temperature possible without putting a toque on our heads (hey not a bad idea!).

We went for a 2 hour walk after lunch & grocery shopping.

By 4:30 on our return it was too dark (& cold) to be worth putting the top down.

I think we will be putting the panorama roof on soon .

Today in Atlanta is a cloudy day with temp of around 58 F and my top is still down. Next week it will be in the 40's and rather than put the the hard top on I will be leaving tuesday for Florida where warmer temps prevail in winter. Will return to Atlanta is Spring. Later, JOE

Sunny In San Diego

The weather was beautiful here in San Diego - sunny and low 70's, although temp dropped fast near sun down. Top down to Fry's (local electronics store) but needed the soft top up on the way home. Enjoy every top-down day!
