Went for a nice sunny drive today, enjoying the cooler temps, and looking for fall colors (its too early). Greg wrote: > Winter?

We also get a salt season as soon as the first frost hits (about the start of hunting season). One good thing about salt season, the state takes a break from road destruction, I mean construction, which only seems harder on the type3s then salt is. Fortunately, I have a disposable car for salt season to protect my beloved type3s from the ravages of salt. I've been helping my son on his type3 though, trying to finish up some last of the year stuff before the rainy season. : ) Bob 65 Notch S w/ Sunroof 69 Square AT-the baby suburban ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
