Smile finally

yesterday after work i spent a few hours waking up my 8 from hibernation. oil change, fresh ignition, optima red top, fresh gas, tire pressure, and a quick wash.
i still have a ton of new parts for her i bought over the winter but theres only so many hours in a day. it felt so good to drive my car again its been over 6 months. im so happy winter is over and cant wait to leave work and get back into my wonderful car.

I should consider myself lucky... I try not to go too long without driving mine. Credit goes to the reasonable weather I face around the area I live in.
