Ah Springtime! My son is coming home to visit from his home in Virginia
tomorrow, the Morgan has been alive all winter thanks to the mild weather,has a
new battery and a grounding strap and is good to go. Should I let my "boy" (24
and much more adept than his old man) take the car out by himself? This would be
a real milestone, especially if I let him take his bride along, instead of the
aforementioned nervous parent. I think I will! Ah! Springtime!!

PS: don't forget to flush the cooling system, grease all the grease nipples
including a bit in the water pump, if you are so blessed. Points corrode after a
winter's rest, and if you can, you should drain any crud from your gas tank,
carb bowls, fuel pump, what have you. Springtime indeed.

Reminds me of the time I went to buy a Mog... The owner was showing off the
car's features to me, reached down and opened the small tool box and the
resident mouse went running up his arm... Once the owner and my lovely bride
stopped screaming I was able to get a couple of pretty good pictures of the
"co-pilot" peering around various parts of the engine...
Ah! If the mice are active, can spring be far behind?
