Yesterday, I had the top down when I went home from work (it was in the mid
50's). It was a pleasant drive, particularly sine I had managed to time it
so as to avoid all the traffic.
Last night, my darling wife felt it was a bit too cool to have the top
down, so we took her car.
This morning it was 31 degrees, and I didn't look forward to the prospect
of struggling to put up a cold, stiff vinyl top, so I donned my leather
jacket and my Carrick wool cap, and off I went. It was a bit nippy on the
freeway, but believe me, I'm A-WAKE!!
You wouldn't believe the stares I got on the freeway (then again, maybe you
might). As I was parking a co-worker (MGB owner) walked by and asked; "You
DIDN'T drive in with the top DOWN, did you?" When I just smiled, he said
"You're plumb NUTS!" I just smiled and nodded as I finished snapping the
tonneau down.
Nice way to start a morning.
