Washed it, then drove it. Nothing very exciting.

Lots of plans for mine. Just waiting until it gets warmer as cold and plastic are not a good match.

Waiting for Mr Lipstic to hire someone to fix the road and driveway up to the cabin. Then I’ll bring her up here and drive her like I stole her.

Looked at it, its under a California car cover with the battery tender on. Been that way since November and will remain till about early April.

Northern NY weather has us, which means plenty of snow and ice and real low tempts. Will stay in garage till decent out!
