Frank,
How can you possibly get along without shoveling snow in the winter and
raking leaves every spring and fall? How can you live without all the road
salt rotting the bodies of your cars, killing your shrubs, and even getting
into the water supplies?
California is no better. I have family there. I guess you like Santa Ana
winds, forest fires, mudslides and earthquakes. Personally, I'd rather
shovel snow.

How can I say this without sounding tooooooo smug.......
Last Monday my wife and I took a picnic and drove our LBC over the hill
to a winery in the Santa Ynez Valley (CA central coast). The
temperature was in the 70's, it was a beautiful day, great food, great
wine (and they were crushing this years crop as we were there,) and
great friends (they drove a Miata! Boo.) And we can do this almost any
day all year 'round. Don't have a top. TS55223L goes topless all year
long.
