Yeah. That ain't today Brah! 
It's been raining all day long today!
I could beat this challenge, without driving the car anywhere.
I have a huge puddle right alongside my VW currently.

There's never enough time to do it right the first time. But there's always enough time to do it thrice.

Na! I used to think that way about you people in the hot parts too. Man I could never take that heat! A few years back we went to a hot part of the world and I found out that the body adapts pretty quick. Three weeks in it and it wasn't a big deal. You would find the same thing if you came here.
It's 10% physical and 90% mental.
I think Madmike's was an old photo but I could be wrong...

See, I really dislike being cold. Which naturally means that I have a very hard time with winter!
A few years ago, during the summer on a very hot day, I was outdoors enjoying myself and I realized I'd acclimated to the hot weather. So I figured I could probably do the same thing come winter!
But no, I still hated being cold and still hated winter.

No cheating. Just following a trend of random old pictures and folks not listing the current challenge after posting
your VW next to some type of water. Stream, river, crick, lake, ocean, whatever.

^^^ That looks somewhat near Daven Port.
Unless TDCTDI claims his pic is from today.
I'd say you're the winner of the latest challenge.

Your VW next to a lighted Holiday display. It can be Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa or Festivus but nothing Satanic please. Bonus points if it's at a Nursing Home. |

On second thought, that challenge might be a bit too difficult so I'm gonna change it.
NEW CHALLENGE: your VW next to anything. Anything at all. |
