Karlos,
I think you should try driving East on 60 to get to Superior...But it sounds like a superior idea to me!

Got me a nice pair of leather driving gloves this morning... I'll be itching to try them out come Jan 1...
Just driving home in the cold, from the MikieC meetup last Saturday, dried my hands out like a pair of raisins... and now my knuckles are all cracked and bleeding. (wah)
Getting old totally BLOWS.

Robert what brand and model gloves did you get? I am thinking about getting some too...
and you ain't old yet. You're younger than me and by definition I'm not old  so you can't be old. |

Isotoner lambskins- 42 bucks on Amazon
I used to have a really expensive pair of Fratelli's back in the day; but when they wore out I replaced them with Isotoners, and the cheap ones lasted twice as long, so I never went back...

Wilson's Leather has some pretty good lined and insulated leather driving gloves on sale right now.. I have some and they do keep your hands warm.

To the TOP.
Here's just a reminder about this Sunday's New Year's Day Run.
Yesterday, ACCUWEATHER called for Rain, on Sunday, but today, it says Saturday, for the rain, and lots of sunshine on Sunday. I like today's forecast much better.

Karl, please have your weather folks call my weather folks and ask them to get together and work this out. Weather Channel is calling for highs in the mid fifties and 80 percent chance for rain in both Mesa and Oracle. Let's see how it looks on Friday.

AccuWeather changed again today. Now, "Coupla Showers"
I'm thinking, hopefully, by Friday, it'll look good. If not, there's next weekend.
Stay tuned.
