Funny, it's warm here in northern Nevada. I washed all three of my vehicles this afternoon. The bike actually took the longest.

Side note: my '83 is an original Houston car. It doesn't have a block heater. Luckily for me it starts easily down into the teens (lowest I've tried it), unlike my two gaspots. The Kawi in particular seems to think anything below 70 is "winter".

If only it would start getting cold in Phoenix. Summer is still going on here and it sucks.

It's miserable here too. 42 this morning, dry, and it'll be 85 or so this afternoon. I am still picking tomatoes, sweet corn and salad greens. This warming thing isn't all bad.
