I have heard about this annual Seattle Hemp Festival. What is that, a
place where people discuss rope and cloth? :-)

I don't deal well with cold, but my daughter lives in Washington now. I
am leaning strongly towards yes on the job, I would have to be there by
the middle of April. That leaves a LOT of work to be done in a short
period of time.

You probably won't need it, though I do also have the entire climate
control box as well if your's is faulty.

BTW, the '96M is going to live again according to the new owner. He was
going to use the rear quarter panel to repair a '97 STO with 15,000
miles that took a hard hit.
That frame can not be fixed, he plans to straighten the '96M and
transfer the parts over. A '96M without a torsen differential,
hmmm....At least he has the correct wheels for the model.

It took me two years to take mine apart, I am guessing it would take me
about 20 years to put it back together again. I hope he works faster on
wrecked cars than I do.

Snow? This is the end of March!

It has been really warm and sunny here for several weeks now. Even in the
morning I am driving top down, which means it must be at least in the
order of 65F then.

The official temperature at 7 pm was still 75F.

Whiner about high temps?? It is already those temperatures here right now.
Do you hear me complain? (About anything else than you?)

Grumble. Wimps.

Absolutely. I have often thought the only thing to do would be the
application of a blunt instrument, but the distance kept me back.

Ah yes, summer in the Pacific Northwest. It was on a Wednesday last year
wasn't it?

Unless you live in Spokane! It was 70 yesterday. First day with the
top down.
OK, it was only 50 today... but tomorrow......

;-P~~~~~~~

The temperature *might* get up to 60F this weekend. There's still
piles of that nasty white stuff all over the place and the ground is
still frozen.

One good sign, there's a huge flock of robins in the office parking
lot this morning and the juncos have pretty much disappeared.
