Yeah, there's that.

The last time I drove the '92 down to CI (smoked glass tops) I felt like a chicken in an oven in a Corningware dish.

And I've got the older R-12 refrigerant which cools better than the R-134a stuff in high humidity environments.

The days are often hot, but the nights can be cool. Best to throw a hoodie or a spring jacket in your suitcase/duffel bag.

That's what I brought with me at the last CI I attended. If memory serves, it was a warm evening and I didn't need it, though.

Weather was beautiful here today.

Unfortunately, I was only out in it running errands for a bit, not doing anything fun.

Yow!!! I have it on my list to price gravel for all our beds in the yard. If it's that kind of money, I may change my mind!!!
