Well this rain is not helping with any Fall driving. Rain everyday this week. Foliage is turning too fast. Oaks are turning brown instead of red and just dropping off already. I wanted to go for a drive down the Kancamagus Highway this Sat but they are saying rain in the mountains again. Might have to take the day off Friday and go then. Ugh!

I couldn't agree more. I barely drove my car this summer because it was too hot, now it is too rainy. The fall is by far the most enjoyable time of year for these cars... I hope the weather improves so that I can finish the siding project on my house and get out there on the road.

This is also one of the nicest boating times of year as you can see a lot of foliage from the water. But....many folks up here are already pulling their boats out due to the rain and fog up here. Too bad, as the tourist money is shrinking too fast for the time of year (Foliage leaf peeper season)and it is going to hurt the local merchants.
Well, more closing sales for the locals I guess.

Beautiful weather here. Yesterday was so nice, I ditched work early and went for a drive. Did the same thing today - 82*, sunny, light breeze, beautiful!
Cold front moving in tonight, though. High of 56* tomorrow. Brrrr!

Same here, Bob.
We're just about starting our driving season. Weatherman predicts today was the last of the triple digits for the year. High tomorrow is only forecasted to be 99*!!
But being the desert it does get nippy in the early AM. Lows will be in the 70's.
Still, clear blue skies likely through January.
Yes, the roadster will be driven to work the rest of the week.
Thanks,
Will
