The GF and I did the island tour today in Vicki. Cool wind coming off the bay already. The GF reminded me that it is november and we were out on the beach. As I pulled Vicki into the garage I noticed that I have run 4 hours on the dot since my last oil change.

Did about 1/2 hour ride today and heard a mechanical rattle. Found the top 2 bolts holding the cooling shroud had loosened up.Thought I had blue thread locked them. The rest were OK. Odd

A whole lot of rain here today. In fact the 10 forecast is bleak. The carting season might be at an end for the year.

Maybe a canvas enclosure and a propane heater might get you a longer season.

Mrs Chevy has the whole canvas rig on her cart. But to me if the weather isn't good I take the car rather than the beach buggy. I guess that makes me a fair weather fan. Also remember tot only is it cold BUT 20 + MPH winds are common here. Like today 45 degrees and 22 mph wind speed. Car day to the post office.

Its coming, snow here yesterday and this morning more snow and got under freezing. Maybe tomorrow I can get heat going in garage and do something, stuck to housework today it looked so nasty out lol. About inch on grass right now some of it melted. Busy week I was beat anyway it was nice to sleep in. However the cart is here I could take a spin in the snow lol. If I can get heat going and finish up the project in there I'll get the cart in and try putting the new carb on.

Yes family made a whole cab for their utv with doors, out of some nylon sheet I think it was. It has a roof and windshield already. Its a must for cool weather riding but even then I think they only use it down to 50F or so, when it comes to longer rides.

The GF and I used the car and not the cart for a bird sighting trip and were rewarded with 2 great blue herons and 1 white great egret. Capped off the trip with lunch at the landing cafe where we enjoyed the crab bisque soup. Today's lunch special was fish and chips was also good after all the Brit shows we watch on netflix

Well I just hid in the house at 35F out there lol, gutless! I now have much cleaner freezers and other areas. Ah winter. Hope it warms some so I can chop up rest of leaves in yard and maybe get a spin on the cart without the snow just yet!

It was down to 30 here early this a.m. Coldest yet this year. Headed for 33 monday a.m. All this was with 20 + mph winds making it seem even colder. No beach walking today just car viewing of the birds. In a way surprised we spotted anything let alone the great blue herons, which are some to see when they take to flight.
