Default A few December pics

I took out the bird today for the first time since the end of October. I only took it out because the Honda had yet another flat tire....4th time since the summer and 3rd one in the last 1.5 months. All of the flats except the last one was due to those Chinese faulty valve stems. This time however the rim was bent...I was told that a few weeks ago but at the time I couldnt afford to get a new rim. The seal broke they put on and the tire just wouldnt hold air so I found used rim in great shape at a local junkyard and then got a tire yesterday.

Anyway the guys at the tire place wanted to see the T/A so I took it out today to pick up the tire. Since it was a very unsually warm day in the 60's here in Northern VA I decided to take some pics at this old barn a few miles from where I live. I would've gotten some different shots then I show here but I was wearing my new off-white boots and everything was muddy near the barn

So here's just a few shots.

Always love seeing your pics. The shading on the flames on the hood make all the difference

Thanks everyone

Jonas I had emailed you but you'd never answered. That was awhile ago though.

As far as the boots go they are just the boots that are in style now . The winter type/ugg ones...not the high heel ones. I only wear those for work or going out.

Gary yeah I hate the inspection stickers. In PA at least they went over on the driver's side bottom corner so you didnt see them as well.
