Brrrr. Not too bad if working hard, but for riding, boating, or anything else that is too damn cold.

Happy Saturday Nor Cal. The weather guessers say there is no rain in the next ten days. Cloudy days, but no rain.

I have been using windshield wipers all morning.

My van has a wiper on the rear door window. I don't have use for it. The window is tinted, and I can't see anything. When I had an Explorer, I never used the rear wiper either. Same technology with wiring and a motor - I want a back window which goes down. My dad's Gran Torino station wagon had it. Any wagons, vans, SUVs offer a rear hatch or lift gate with a window that goes down?

Our 1993 Bronco has a rear window that goes down. You can’t open the rear without lowering the window.

Happy Sunday Nor Cal. Hope everyone has a blessed day.
My '94 Bronco had the same roll down rear window.

Forecast says we will get rain Monday and Thursday this week. Nothing like the last storm, but every drop counts.

I picked up my Mach-E GT Performance Edition on Sat. It's a blast to drive! The 634 foot pounds of torque instantly available is incredible. The magna ride suspension is pretty amazing as well. It's going to make a fine commuter.

Archer is quite pleased he has a patio to play on. He and his brother Rip have logged 50k+ steps a day over the past four days. He's dying to annihilate the lawn.
