October is Here Chat Session.

Where the heck did September go? Time to change the calenders and let the clean BS fly. Only about 86 more days until Christmas.

Howdy Virginia! Thanks for getting us started off with an October thread George.

Right now it's cold and windy here. Looks like it's gonna be a nasty weekend.

Nasty up here too, John. There's a guy coming shortly to look at my Mustang. Not a very good day for that. Rain is my fault...washed the 'tang yesterday.

Luckily for us, we were able to park right at the edge of the football field for my son's game today so we ended up staying in the truck to watch the game. It's been raining off and on all day so far and it doesn't look like it will clear up any time soon either, George.

Yeah a rainy day isn't optimal for showing or test-driving a vehicle. Hopefully it will clear up for you later. It's supposed to be in the upper 30s to lower 40s overnight all week here. Gonna be a bad week to be on midnight shift......although it may just keep some of our Springer guests indoors and out of our hair.

Right now it's 45 outside and the wind is gusting like crazy.

If this weather keeps up, Rocco, you're going to be ice fishing by H'ween.
