Good morning all, tired this morning, but off and running. Need to go to the big city 40 miles away and pick up a book for school, and drop off a project. Then I have a meeting with the teacher who had my job this year so that I can see what cool things she did and steal them for next year. Birthday party tonight for my sister in law, so it will be busy.

Plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery, no? Good luck with the meeting. And have fun at the party.

Until 3 weeks ago, I never had the luxury of covered parking at work. My new office has a parking deck. In summertime AL heat, it's a Godsend. I no longer burn my butt at the end of the day.

Yes, I love that my Monte can be covered all day in the sun. Not only so I don't burn my butt, but for the upkeep of the leather.

Going to be 98 today, with a heat index well over 100. And I couldn't find ANY covered parking at work today!!!! Usually I have a space that I always get, but there was nothing. I guess everyone is keeping their cars from the heat and sunshine. I'm going to try to poach a space around noon when people hopefully go out for lunch
I usually have a spot under a tree at work I hde the Black '98 LS under. Then I get the bird flop problem... Oh well, least I don't drive hot bird flop! LOL!

I just never liked the idea of car covers, with the dust and dirt on the car while putting it on and such.

Ya you do have to make sure the car is clean before you cover it, but that's not a problem with Precious!
When I use it on Silver - now that's a little more difficult. I pretty much have to rinse him off if I ever want to cover him.
