Well it's here and by the time it stops they say 5-9 inches of snow. I took the Yellow Hornet out this morning before the sow started for some errands and spent the day doing some of the Honey Do's. When my daughter moved out 4 years ago me and my son grabbed a grabbed a 4'X6' walk in closed before my wife could. We put up shelves and use it to store my Hornet parts and his Javelin parts. I have the wood to put up more shelves too. I have parts behind my dresser, book cases, wall units. Seems like there is never enough room for everything. I have a 2 car garage with one Hornet and my son's 74 Javelin and rent a storage space a few blocks away from where I live too. I guess tomorrow would be a good day to make the new shelves. Send us some warmth up north Bart.
