It was in the 80s today. My dog was cannonballing into the pool, which made it hard for me to not spill my margarita. At leasts the steaks sizzling on the grill smelled nice.

Astronomical Spring arrived late yesterday.
Two sure signs of spring have happened in the last 24 hours. Thunderstorms, thankfully not heavy wet snow to shovel, and I saw 2 Porsches today. A Boxter S ahead of me until it turned and a nice slant nose 911 outside the local mechanics shop.
Battery is on the charger, just need to move some boxes and I can wake mine up.

It's raining here today for the first time in months. Should be back to the 90's and totally dry in a few days. I'll ride up to Prescott to see snow later in the week. Then I ride to San Diego where the weather is always great.

Margarita sounds good.

Tastes even better. Our rain is heading to AZ - skies are clear. I have thick cut pork chops on the grill right now.

That fresh/virgin snow sure is pretty though. I loving looking from a distance.

Pool water temp is up to 75. That would be above the Max temp summer time temp in upstate NY. I prefer it above 80 these days...

Cars rot in FL? The only rotting cars I've seen here are from "up North".

Now the bigger question is: why do Canadian men (e.g. "snowbirds") come down here wearing Capri pants? Did I miss the memo?? Are shorts out? Are Canadian men ahead of the fashion curve? Is this to make even more of a statement than your traditional black socks/sandals & Speedo beachwear?

OK, that is what capri pants are. I don't think they are allowed in Texas, on men.

Well "men" do wear them here in FL, but typically it's the guys that want to date our brothers.

This season, when the snowbirds arrived, there was an inordinate amount of Canadians sporting Capri's...I guess they get a different edition of GQ magazine than we do...
