My lovely bride left me in charge of watering her garden in her absence over the last two weeks.
Getting rain every few days, has worked out perfectly. It's like mother Nature said, "you're good, I got this."

Yesterday the high was a lovely 77*F. I got in a 20 mile ElliptiGO ride and finally washed my Pilot. That's about to change. I'll be turning my water system back on.

I'm driving for SAINT as a substitute, today. It's 94°F as I sit in my Pilot waiting for my next passenger. He's going home from dialysis so he could come out early. I had a rider cancel so I am killing 90 minutes. At least it's cloudy.

I used to think it's was slow. I realized it may be faster than my S2000 at 5,200 feet, here.

I'm sure it feels slow after driving your NSX but as they say everything is relative. It's listed as doing 0-60 in the mid sixes and running high 14's in the quarter which isn't bad at all especially for a vehicle that wasn't built to be fast.

I realized my 2017 Pilot wasn't too much of a dog when I started looking at the specs of new Passports and Acura SUVs. I appreciate it more, now. It is annoying to see the gas prices go up every day, though. I filled it up when I was in the Fort Collins Costco neighborhood, yesterday, after filling up the 2017 NSX for the same reason, on Wednesday. Neither was empty but it's 21 miles from my house. In one day, 85 octane went up 2 cents and 91 octane went up 11 cents, per gallon. I guess it's good I filled the NSX the first day. It gets slightly better mpg than my Pilot, with twice the horsies.

Same thing happened to me last time I filled up my cars. Put gas in one on a Thursday and then the other one the next day and it was fifteen cents higher. You are smart to fill them since gas just keeps going up.
Temperature is currently 49 degrees with on/off rain.
