Bugs? In November?
Geez, around here, we lose all our bugs in September. But then with temps
in the teens and four inches of fresh snow, we don't have to worry about
bugs anytime soon. Meanwhile, my MGs are all idle in my heated garage. I do
have some spiders that settle in if I let the cars sit too long. From the
looks of things, they won't be going anywhere for at least a few days.
