It warmed up enough today to shoot a little epoxy primer on the front and rear axles for the 36 woodie. I sure notice the difference between the thickness of the paint at 70 vs the usual 90s. It was in the 70s and not a cloud in the sky. It's been rainy and chilly(for SE Texas) last few weeks so I was getting cabin fever. I'll shoot some black paint tomorrow.

It's sure looking like spring. All the orange trees are in full bloom and it smells like Florida in my back yard. I'll hold off on spring until a few more weeks as we could still get some freezing weather.

On the NW side of San Antone, I'm already seeing blue bonnets.

Sunday about 80 in Huntington Beach Ca. A lot of people at the beach. Bad news was the grid lock. Tryed to go driving but too much traffic.
