    The NWS is forecasting a windy cloudy day with possible rain and/or snow showers throughout the day with temps falling. Sunday at this point is partly to mostly sunny in the mid-40's. Sunday sounds much more appealing and makes more sense. Are you guys locked into Saturday ?

    not i, mark. i'm only getting let off my leash for a relatively short window, and it's a haul to woburn from home, so i'm probably just going to enjoy the trip to and fro solo.

    woburn is a good jumping-off point though. verell and others more familiar with that area could probably direct folks to some useful roads/areas due west and thereabouts.

    doody.

    weather.com and accuweather are both saying we're past the rain now. the latter is showing some partial sunshine in fact by meeting time.

    neither is forecasting any snow - sheesh, relax guys :).

    this wind is impressive though - be careful for fallen branches, etc. if you're out on back roads.

    doody.

    Alas, skies here are questionable in the mountain of Monadnock :-( And yes, it MIGHT snow, but you expect this being where i am. We are a kinda microcosm of weather. When everyone else gets 1 ft of snow, we get AT LEAST 2 feet :-(

    Looks like i am hunkered down here :-( Sorry, will have to miss it :-(

    Enjoy the Drive,

    Please drive carefully. Enjoy your ride guys.

    it was stellar to see all the familiar faces again and meet some new folks! thanks everyone for turning out! i for one had to brave some sprinkles on my way there, but that was about it. i think i may have seen a single snowflake on my way home, but i couldn't swear by it.

    i didn't take pictures, but hopefully someone else did and can post them here

    i think we had eight f-cars, but don't quote me on that.

    sorry i had to be the first to run - the boss needed me home by 16:00. hope you guys had fun wrapping up and hopefully driving.

    doody!

    Well I actually drove through a decent amount of fluffy snow on the way back! 44 degrees though, so no danger of it settling (yet).

    Took some photos - these are all scaled back to 640 pixels from 3meg originals. Michael, your 355 came out nice - send me an email if you'd like the original file.

    I look forward to the next event, which judging by the weather might be quite some time!

    Great to have faces to put with names, finally. We had a great terrific time but, like Doody, felt we needed to leave right away. I think we had the longest ride home and went through some pretty good snow squalls on 495 and 290. Hope we can do it again even if all the cars are put away.

    Evan, don't forget to send me your email by Private Message.
