Hi Kendra,
Welcome to the list! :o)
Just talked to my son in Chicago.
he says there is a dusting of snow
in the city where he's at.
Driest December on record, here in the PNW?
Arizona here we come !!!  78 & sunny !!!  :o)
Don't forget the sunscreen ! &&& my thong  ;o)
....You'll probably have to drop the spare tire in front
and work your way along the linkage, back from there to the Tranny
with a oil spray can (never WD-40 :o) and some grease !!!
hee...hee... (an inside - list funny :o)
