Ferrari Mailing List: Was Weather, now Montreal GP

[red5hilser (red5hilser]

Hey Peter: I don't know anything about this sissy-boy Celsius stuff, but I do 
remember one year in Montreal hiking from the Metro stop, thru the park, across 
the bridge, onto the island, past the casino, thru the gate, and the last 1 1/2 
miles to our seats in Grandstand 15, on the other side of the hairpin just a 
quarter mile past the start/finish line. (whew!) And the thermometer registered 
40 deg Celsius! 

The kicker was, unlike Tucson, it wasn't a 'dry heat.' The 85% humidity was the 
icing in the cake!.

After that, I understood what our boys must have felt on their infamous 'Bataan 
Death March.' 

I had been?led to believe that Montreal had a large Chinese population (or was 
it Vancouver?) So kept looking around for a rickshaw to hire like the one that 
I ride in San Francisco Chinatown, but none were to be seen. 

As good Quebecois, they must have been boycotting we filthy Anglophiles from 
the South. We are such uncouth beasts!

Yer suffering pal, Ferrari Bubba

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I've spent two days driving through
the hills in the 328GTB and 355CH in 25 deg Celsius weather with hardly a
cloud in the sky.

I'm becoming convinced the Ice Age has begun.  Haven't been able to get out
of the driveway in 10 days and no road improvement forecast until after a
bleak & lonely Christmas.  

So, I'm going to downsize and leave Oregon but to where is the question.

Is the weather where you are better than average for December or at least
acceptable?  

Beginning to think Bubba Hilser made a smart move but I really don't know
what the winter weather is like in the South.
