We got back last night from a week in Orlando. No opportunity to gloat over warmer temps down there. I ran to the DMV this morning and got the new tab for the Harley. Washed it and went for a 35 mile ride this evening. Pretty crazy to be riding a scooter in short sleeves on the 17th of March...nana

Tomorrow, the '66 will get driven a little too.

Welcome back Mitch!  Thanks for bringing the warmth with you!  beers

The next 10 days look pretty good but getting back more to 'normal', but still pretty darn warm for March, which is fine with me.

I actually tested the AC in the garage this evening. I’m not sure what to call this weather but it’s warm and humid early. The Wood Ducks have returned, heard the first frogs in the pond this evening and the trees have popped their buds and you can see green.

Lets hope the bad weather seen to the east and south stays there.

Even with the nice weather here I'm sure it was good to see the big pond and the beaches.

It sure is humid I have to empty the water seperator on my compressor frequently where a couple of weeks ago it wasn't required very often.

I rode the Buell yesterday and drove the wife's Vette. I need to pull the Shovelhead and EVO out and strat changing fluids but I still am waiting for the weather to go south on us. I am getting a good Farmer's tan though.

First time ive ever had to put shorts on and even had the AC on for a short time. First time I have ever had to do that in March before. This winter is way better then the El Nino year as far as nice weather goes.

Just think about all those Spring Break-ers who spent all that money to go south and have the warm weather. All they have to show for it is a hangover. We got stuff done here!

 Plus the snowbirds that fled the state for the winter months ago. Not much to gloat about the weather down there this year compared to what we have up here this entire season.

One of my dogs had a friggin' tick on it's ear already!  This is definitely the earliest I have had to worry about those blood suckers!
