"Rusting Away" up here in Seattle!

Wow,......I'm surprised there aren't more people from Seattle in here,...I mean everytime I turn my head, there's another Camaro driving by. But then again, most of them are filthy dirty, due to all the rain up here. Speaking of rain,..we've had over 8 inches in the last 21 day, which is really starting to **** me off! I need to be out there driving my car through the curves, so that all my new suspension will settle in, and I can finally get it back up in the air to re-torqe all the bolts, and regrease the zerk fittings.

I mean don't get me wrong, I have fun in the 88 Fiero GT, but as of right now, it's still only sport'n a V6. I'm just getting frustrated because I haven't been able to really put the Z28 thru any kind of real testing since I lowered it.
I lowered it on the 23rd of Dec. and it's rained every day since then.:banghead: So,...the next full day of sunshine we get,....I'll be driving my car around for no less than 8 hours!

Well, since Cardomain is based out of Seattle, it could be that alot of people just don't know about this site yet. I'll have to see what I can do about that, as fas as going into "My" Cardomain and promoting this site to other Camaro Owners.

Yeah, it pounded us pretty hard last night as well. Watching the news yesterday, it looked like one long system that hit most of the Northwest. I think this makes another 28 staight days for us. It stopped for a day and a half before that, and then it was 21 straight days before that.

I'll tell you one things forsure,...as soon as my situation allows,....I will be moving to southern California and retiring! After 39 years of this wet, grey, gloomy weather, I'm so sick of it - that I could go the rest of my life without ever seeing another raindrop, and be a very happy man!

He-He,...that's good. If you convert 8 inches of rain into snow,...You'd be talking about several feet.

While it's been raining down here in the low-lands,...it's been snowing up on the hills.(Snoqualmie-pass) In 5 days, it snowed over 100 inches up there. So Yes,...I am very glad it's raining, instead of snowing.

Today is Sunday the 15th, and it's the first day in almost a full month that it didn't rain. It made my YEAR, just to be able to wash my car today. (only because it's been raining since last year; Dec./05 )

Yeah,.....I seen the pictures of your baby all covered in that nasty white stuff. Looks like a snow plow drove by and buried your drivers side.
So I hear ya bud about rather having rain than snow!

At least with rain, you can still drive around without too much of a hassle. Although it would be nice to live some place where you had all four seasons,.....instead of only two,.......Summer & Rain!
It rains 9 months out of the year, and it's sunny the other 3,......but when it's sunny up here, it's an Awesome City!
