Winter must have missed the memo

[skreidle]

It was in the 30s/40s today, winds at 16mph, gusting to 33, wind chill around freezing or below. And yet, it's supposed to be in the 50s tomorrow and 60s Wednesday. Wacky! Several of the motorcyclists at the shop are just waiting for warmer weather, including yours truly. :)

I'd post my photos from Radford--extended family, dad's new car, Harry's projects, their pets--and a few more of my bike*, but alas, something's screwy with my webhost. The result is that I can't upload photos through Gallery, as the thumbnails can't be created, likely due to an issue with ImageMagick that's out of my control. Boo!

* A few just to show different views, a few to show some additional pre-existing minor scratches I didn't notice until later. :P

Crazy, isn't it? I was wearing shorts around the house today, opened the door to put out some recycling, and was shocked. It looked warmer than that!

Oh, I knew what the temp would be--I've been keeping a keen eye on weather.com, in case it told me it'd be nice enough to ride! :D

Oh, :p

My mom always closes WeatherBug, so I rarely bother keeping tabs on the temperature and forecast anymore. So I look out the window and see a nice, sunny day in April, and I think, Hmm, I should be okay out there in shorts for just a couple of minutes... Ha!

Just think, it's going to be colder on the mountain (the higher the elevation=the colder the temp). Old Rag Mt. is one of the highest peaks in the Blue Ridge.

Yeah, but there's a week to go yet--the weather's changing pretty drastically.

The worst part is right at the peak, where there's no wind protection. :)

Damnit, I need another car. I'm such a car whore.

Pictures of these forthcoming--actually, already available, just not Descriptioned yet. :)

So many cars waiting to be restored! Drool.

And he'll get to 'em all, in time.. :)
