Feb. Car wash?!!??

2 years ago

Hello from NON-Winter Fargo ND!!
It is SO bizarre here!!!!
Last year, we had a LOT of snow ❄️❄️❄️, & COLD weather. THIS year.....there's hardly ANY of the white stuff! 🥶😲😬❄️
We had some snow/ice around Christmas, but that's been about it.
Now.....there's basically NO snow in town. There's been many days now of above freezing weather. We're flirting with near-record highs lately in most of ND/MN/SD. It's 38F now in Fargo. Last year, 38 would've been a tremendously nice day! 😲😲😲
Because it's been such a non-winter & warm......I've been BUCKET-WASHING my car in the driveway!!! The streets have been mainly dry for a few days, & my car looked so horrendous during our Jan. warmup.
The neighbors & passers-by have probably been looking at me, & shaking their heads! I make 3 or 4 trips in/out with a 5gal pail of warm water. I'm one of those guys who avoids the "Tunnel-washes" like the PLAGUE. Now that I'm good at Car-polishing, I can't STAND the swirls in the clear-coat. Only TOUCHLESS &/ or Driveway washes for this cat!!
Last year, I don't think there were dry streets until LATE April!
Faron
