jisoo26 - excellent job - double congrats on fighting the Pacific NW weather and winning out. I lived around Portland three years and never washed a car once (of course, I didn't have a car I cared about so much as my RX-8 ).

Thanks, it's all about timing with the Portland weather here. As soon as the sun came out I leapt into my driveway and did the whole job like a 1-man NASCAR pit crew...man I was tired. Trying to do everything quickly but carefully really sucks lol. It'll be easier this weekend though, it's sunny and 70 degrees today!! *w00t*
