Today is fabulous weather here in the Boston area. I fired up the Grand Sport for the first time since last December and took her out for a 30 mile drive...top down, of course!

Today's particularly a good day as I had been in a Boston hospital with my 84 year old mother while she had a heart catheter very early this morning. Prognosis wasn't great as she had an aortic valve replaced 16 years ago...average lifetime of a replacement valve is 10 years...so we were all sure it was the valve. Great news, though. She only needed another stent, far easier than open heart surgery.:) We're all very happy. That called for a celebration so out came the Grand Sport for its first drive of 2006.

Hope everyone else around the area is enjoying this fine day!

Glad to hear your news Elaine ! :upthumbs..

Weather here in NJ: AWESOME as well.. As i have to sit here and work.. :cry

Glad you had a good report with your mom's condition and a great drive, once i get home and get a chance to wash the car, she'll be fired up too. It's time for Inspection (Oil change and most importantly brake fluid bleeding), then hopefully we have a couple of good days and i can take my little one for her first Vette drive.

Enjoy the days in spring!

PS: I was going to crack a joke about you driving with the top down, but.. ;)

I'm enjoying this awesome weather as well here in southern NJ!! It's so nice, I just had to drive the vette today to work. I just may even take the roof off on the ride home!!!!

PS-GS Diva, glad to hear the good news!! My Dad (80yrs old) had quintuple (5) bypass surgery last December. I guess I'm doing a belated celebration!!
