Amusing self-observations while spiffing the golfcart up for Tour de Sol today. It finally cleared up, although I managed to busy up the rainy days with printing packets of doc to hand out, crossloading rally routes into the GPS, etc etc. . This is the first car I've actually used *soap* on in like 20 years. . Rain-x on the windshield, back window, and mirrors. . Isopropyl on some of the stubborn spots on the microfiber. . It's amazing how much winter dirt the drivers' floor mat can hold. . The "mushroom farms" formed by organic muck collecting around the base of the rear-hatch lift rods are even gone for now. . Saratoga or bust, . _H*
Unfortunately my camera isn't in my hands this week, or I would have. You really want excruciating but well-lit closeups of my floor mats?? How ... exciting! Really, it looks like any other freshly- cleaned Prius, like in many peoples' avatars and uploads.. . Actually, there's a pic from when I did this *last* year, as a component image near the top of the big chaotic montage under http://techno-fandom.org/~hobbit/cars/prius-log/intro.html which includes several pix from last year's TdS since it figured largely in my picture-taking activities at that point. . _H*
