Our 2013 was light. Probably only did around 2000 or maybe 2500. Not sure what you mean by "...farther than your zip code."Last edited by rspears; 01-14-2014 at 06:26 PM.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Slow year for me, just 20 short trips totaling 10 miles, 1/4 mile down, 1/4 mile back. Oh yeah, then a few more miles playing in the dirt, 10 laps in a non-winged sprinter!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Last Sunday was the first real outing for my '62 Fairlane and we did around 130 miles round trip but I plan on adding to that, especially when the weekend Cruises kick back up and the weather improves some ! Gotta hellp get the grandson's '66 Stang wipers working so he can get it inspected and then I imagine we'll caravan to a lot of stuff this year - - - sure hope so..
