It's been a very moderate summer and exceptionally warm until the last few days, so waking up to the lower 40's was a bit of a shock. But you should have seen all the folks out and about in T-shirts trying not to shiver.

I think we are all in for a unusually cold winter, it was in the low 60s here this morning, that doesn't usually happen till the end of October at the earliest.

Yeah I was up there in Minnesota 2 weeks ago on the Mississippi River and the weather was perfect.

We're down to the low 40 / upper 30's at night out here on the coast...

too frickin cold to have ocean water splashing on you...

Damn cold, snow, Sarah, Ryan and I all have the flu... It's almost as hard to stay here as it would be to move south.

It was 72°F today but they say snow is on the way this weekend.

I just bought this 96 Sebring Convertible on Monday to replace a car my son was driving that was totaled 2 days after we took possession from my mother.

Anyway, took off from work at 1, put the top down and drove around town in the sunshine. It was amazing. I forgot how much fun a convertible can be (when the weather is good). I briefly had a working 73 VW convertible bug when I lived in Hawaii. I loved that car (when it actually ran).

Here's a shitty cell phone pic of the car. It's not in horrible shape but it's noisy (has some rattles) and there's an issue with water build-up in the side panels. I've been researching it and it sounds almost like a design flaw that plagues many years of this car... I guess there are 10 drain holes along the under carriage that are prone to getting plugged up. I have to jack it up and get under it to see what I can do.
