Warm, overcast day in Sydney.

Left at 7:30 to go to the hardware store, about 10mins drive) to pick
up a couple of galv coachbolts for a little job at home.
Dropped the top on my black LE NC (no.1797 if anyone's interested) and
took off,,,,,it's just before 11am and I've just returned.
10 mins there, 10 in the shop.....and then....

Damn it's a good day for driving, pity the job can't wait till next
weekend.

Beautiful day here in Phoenix also, I made a run of about 30 miles
on the freeway with the top down, short sleeve shirt, perfect
temperature!

Like you, it was an errand but I figured why not enjoy it as much as
possible? Traffic was VERY light, I stayed in the slow lane, lazed
along at the speed limit, enjoyed every minute of it!

This past Sunday, the high was about 42F but there was a nice
stiff wind blowing. However, it didn't stop 15 Miata with
assorted drivers and passengers from doing a 2.5 hour drive from
Valley Forge to Reading, PA, with a run up Duryea Drive to the
Pagoda.

I was glad I had a hat on or my ears would have frozen and fallen
off. ;-)

The next day the temperature dropped 15 degrees and I broke down
and put the winter tires on. ;-(

Today, the high was 24F and we had snow flurries all day.
They're forecasting snow starting tonight and falling through
noon tomorrow. Maybe I'll break down and put the hard top on
this weekend.

<sigh>

Ooooh, that would be fun in the Miata. Have done that drive many times,
mostly in the family minivan when my son was attending Albright. When the
weather gets nice again (surely it will, won't it?) may have to make an
early run from central NJ to Reading.

Well, when you're ready for a ride (and yes, I have to believe
that the weather *will* get warm again - eventually!), give a
shout and I'm sure we can get some of the LVMOC folk to join in.
