Drive Time - Sunday 5/22/05
Well, as this weather gets better and better I am feeling the urge for a mountain drive.
The snow should start melting at some of the lower elevations and we may be able to hit Wentworth soon. Mosquito Ridge is also a good choice as traffic (and police presence) has died down recently.
Anyone up for a drive around the middle of May? Please discuss. :banana:

Once you get that down, then try to it while braking.
