Tonight or tomorrow morning!

The forecast is good. The weather has been pretty good off and on for three weeks now.

Yup. The wife and I took the panorama top off tonight and stored it away.

No incidents of paint scratching. Whew!

I had forgotten how good looking the soft top is. Maybe I've just been missing it so much.

If it is nice tomorrow, it will definitly be a top down day!

I have got 4 top down drives in the past 4 days.

No need for SPF lotion yet, but I'm all teeth!

I've had my hard top off for a few weeks now. What a joy to drive again with the top down!

Snowing here right now! No drive this weekend!

Yes. Unfortunately. Sunny, even dry spring weather seems to something for the future. Lots of rain forecast here for this weekend.

At least I am ready to take the first nice days of the new year from the clutches of winter!.
