Electric car in nature. Family walk, one acting the fool, then looking like Winnie the Pooh. So thankful for this lovely weather.

Warm enough out to knock (some of) the salt off.

School bus this snowy morning. Slightly more lo-tech than the ID4.

It was unseasonably warm out, almost no traffic, blasting music, and @crowncustomschicago finished the summer wheels… Felt like spring… …

Dropped off some wheels @crowncustomschicago for the mk4 for next spring. Realized I probably should have put my snow tires on last night.

Mornin'

Sarah took the id4 this morning, so I took the kids to school in the trusty snowplow.

“But papa, I just want to dance!” A thing my child just said to me. I am the tiny town from footloose.

Perfect close to a fine birthday. @piepiemydarling and @handlebarchicago

Little birthday celebration with the family on this beautiful day.
