What a birthday gift!

My husband asked me if I would like to go to a Smart car dealership for a test drive last Saturday. We had heard about them but I've never had the pleasure of driving one. It was absolute love at first sight! I really loved the way I could turn it into a manual shift (sans clutch). Needless to day, I drove home that evening in my new Passion Cabriolet. Was I lucky or what?

Today it was warm enough to put the top down in February. Yes!

A Smart is a great birthday gift.

The last time it was warm enough to put my 'top down', I had people yell at me to put my shirt back on.

Birthday too

After almost a year and a half wait, my red/black/black cabrio should be here about on my birthday too. The DDE is 2/25/09 to 5/27/09, so April should be about right..
