Na,,,,just messin.

I'm originally from Ohio so I know all to well what summer fever feels like.

Seems to be happening a little late this year for you though. Did you guys have a long winter up there?

Re: Anyone have summer fever yet?

The Blazer's been topless since I brought it home in Oct.. Last Fri. & Sat. night's BIG MOON was spectacular. We went out to dinner both nights... blasted around about 100 miles. My dermatologist keeps whittling on me, so I try to stay out of the sun.

If mine was running, it'd be topless...it's been in the upper 80's here and a couple days of low 90's.

Re: Anyone have summer fever yet?

We had 80 degrees yesterday so I had the blazer out to go to my son's t-ball game. Gotta love enjoying the sunshine in the Pacific Northwest in a topless Blazer.
