Snowjob!

Congrats on your retirement! Don't let the honey-do list keep you from doing what's important.

We are in a brief interlude...waiting for more snow. Went to my cottage after Christmas and there was over 2 to 3' on the ground. Thanks to my neighbor for keeping the driveway clear. But had to shovel all that show to get to the front door and had over 4 to 5' blown on the side door.
Only saving grace is I installed a thermostat at the cottage that I can control from my phone, so when I get there it is nice and toasty.

Jim DeShon, what part of the high desert are you in? I'm in Lancaster, are we neighbors?

Hi Ron:

Yup, we are sort of neighbors, maybe 50 miles of desert between us. I am in Hesperia. I've been here about 31 years, long before this was actually a town. Now it is "big city" in my book. Everything has grown up around our little 1-1/4 acres in the middle of town. Now that I have retired, our plan is to stay here though, as long as we can still afford to. ...J.D.

Great J.D.! I hope you're planning on joining us for the run coming up in Feb. You're actually closer than I am to it. Instead of going down the 14 to the 5, I could head over to the 15 and hook up with you for the ride down.

Sorry...Not going to happen .My spider has been in pieces for some time. That is the project for the summer, getting the Spider on the road to recovery. I finally have the time to spend on such things. Right now it is 2 feet in the air on stands with the drive train in pieces. I have spent the last few days cleaning up the shop so I can get to work on the car soon. I was doing some work on it last summer until we had a death in the family. I put a new top on it and started making plans to rebuild the chassis (brakes and suspension). I will probably order the brake parts this month. The chassis work that needs to be done will be simple. Enjoy the run in February. ...J.D.

Well, we'll just have to keep you motivated so that you can join us later in the year.
We look forward to meeting you in person.
Ron
