I can count on one hand the amount of times I got caught in the rain with the '66, and today was one of them. We were lucky to avoid any rain during the car show, but the top had to go up on the way home. Oh well.

Connie and I ran out to the post office today and our road is a real mess. There were ruts easily a foot deep in some new fill they put in a few weeks ago. I'm sure the mud boggers will be coming through any time now. Heck, Connie had to put her truck into 4-wheel drive. I'm thinking we won't be able to get any of the cars out (presuming no more rain) for at least a week.
Ah, life in the country.....

Freaky month. Had almost 5" of rain Tuse and Wends and a total of around 7" for the month. That was more than any single month total during the summer.

Somebody must have bitched to the roads dept., because we heard machinery on the road even during the ending of the rain and into the next day. Apparently they scraped all the mud off that they had recently laid down over the sandy road. I went out today to run some errands and the mud is piled up alongside the road looking pretty much like it had been snow plowed and the mud was REAL dirty snow. But at least the road itself is dry. Not sure what they are planning to do with all that crud piled up next to the road, but if I had to guess, I would say they are going to just pile it back on the road sometime. The stuff does seem to give a nice riding surface when it is dry, but this certainly ain't Arizona.
Weather looks like it should be pretty pleasant for a while. Would be a nice time to take a long drive somewhere.

It was rather pleasant here today. Temps got up to 71 or so. Lizards were laying all over the porch sunning themselves. Some of the apple trees have blooms on them already, so it looks like Spring is trying to get a foothold.
But they are forecasting lows of 29 for both Thursday and Friday nights and a high of only 54 degrees on Friday. Not quite out of the Winter woods yet.
