TOP UP??
Here in Portland, Oregon I am anxiously waiting for February, and hoping my car
is in some derivable condition this year. The temperatures can get very cold,
and the sky gets very clear. There is nothing like putting on a heavy jacket
and stocking cap, putting the top down, or just leave it at home, and turning
the
heater on full blast to go for a drive in your roadster. A lot of people thing
you are crazy, but if you haven't tried it, don't knock it. It is just
grrrrreat!!! I can't wait.
