I am in California, which may be a bad word during harsh winters elsewhere,
but I am glad many of you are enjoying a milder winter than usual. Of
course CA has a diverse climate and although I am in a San Diego suburb called
Santee, we enjoy a “taste” of the seasons since all the temperate weather from
ocean breezes are blocked by the hills and valleys that surround us just a
1/4mile from the San Diego city line. Every house, yard, outside vehicle
is frosted white and occasionally the car doors freeze shut. Our local
mountains (Mt. Laguna 5805ft. and Mt. Palomar 5500+ft.& home of the
Observatory), 30-50min. drive, get over a foot of snow just before Thanksgiving,
Christmas, and again in March. Our Santee winter mornings are the usual
25-28deg. F and rise to 70-75+ during mid-day. I love the colder winter
mornings when it drops to 18/19deg. F (a few of our colder days) and always
enjoy taking the 340 Dart out on the 28deg.-40deg. mornings and early
evenings. No lie; it literally gains 30+HP and wants to REV itself to
death in that cold dry weather. Forget cruising during our hot summer days
– give me the cold/dry days – that’s when I take the car out. Took the
little A-body beast out yesterday and pitched it sideways with
half-throttle...need to get some sticky street slicks; turns mid to high twelves
at the track – 12.8 @106MPH last official visit to the quarter mile but am
relegated lately to “testing” on the non-sanctioned areas...
Have a great and SAFE New Year!

No such luck here - Wisconsin
- land of the salt truck. We have had the great, mild weather (mid 40s
over the weekend), but the roads are already ruined with salt and chemicals
until the spring rains. We're still enjoying the grass on the lawn with no snow - at least for the moment. Glad
to hear you had a great time, though!
