Pit Sign Up


If Mother Nature were a member of the Michigan weather pit crew, she would be standing like that guy in the picture above. Her sign would indicate something like, 5 laps to go. Not 'til the end of the race; just 'til it's time to pit for fuel and tires.

The days are sunny and beautiful but the mornings are starting to resemble October just a little too closely. I don't need a sweatshirt or jacket just yet but Tam sure does. And the afternoon breeze has cooled from the balmy Miamiesque humid blowdryer effect we've lived with the past several weeks. And a couple of those trees across the street-- what's with that shade of green?

There'll be plenty of opportunities to wax poetic about the change of seasons, the beauty of a Michigan autumn, and the coming of winter. More later, I'm sure. In the meantime, I'll just drive like hell and enjoy the rest of this near perfect summer we're enjoying.

Happy motoring. It'll be time to put on those full-wet tires before you know it.
