Beautiful sunny day, house thermometer showed a balmy 39F, SO out for my first roadster drive of the year.
Drove the 1500 (sporting its new vintage plate) to the Snoqualmie Valley. About 60 miles.
Great luck again with the new plate, AWK 017.
Carefully removed the pile of year tags and there was a very nice 64 tag on the plate!

They were all SQUISHY.
Better on the Pics, Mr Pebbles?
I started using my bigger camera again (but still not at "Alvin Resolution")
Got to save those Pixels

Did you then morph into Snake Plissken and escape from LA?

@mlwebb thank you
@mainer311 at one point on that drive, on an abandoned street, a shady dude walked up talking and did try to snatch camera gear from passenger seat. I morphed into snake real quick.

Great driving weekend after the latest storm and before the next one comes.
On Saturday I DROVE 122 miles to the coast and back via 9/35 to Pescadero. HWY 1 was beautiful:
On Sunday I DROVE to Calaveras Rd. Great weather again:
Even took the top off
Always stop for cows!

Put about a 100 miles on the car yesterday bombing around the Kitsap Peninsula as I continue to run in 1034. Intake and exhaust noise make me smile, thanks Dave Premo for your help with jetting!! At 45 degrees and with no top and no heat it gets cold though... With all the clothes I had layered on it looked like Sasquatch was out for a joyride.

Man, just watched this... loved it. I have Roadster images in my head that go along with certain songs I like... I just know you could put them to video!
