    Got Pollen?

    Hi everyone,

    I've noticed quite a few posts lately about the awful winter conditions "up north" lately - and yes I've even added my comments regarding the warm weather here in Orlando, with the intention of cheering you guys up up there.

    I offer this post as a demonstration of the difficult...yes, even horrific conditions that those of us in the south must endure during this time of year. What could be so awful, you ask?

    Pollen. Lots of pollen. This is my car after one day at work. I think you'll agree that this is pretty awful. Yeah, it's 80 degrees here in Orlando today but just look at this. Horrible, I say.





    So, upon arriving home from work I felt obligated to break out the ONR and get rid of this horrible-ness. It took me a full 40 minutes to get things back to normal, and I even sweated a little. I think you will all surely commiserate.

    50-50 of the hood:



    ...and a full 40 minutes, 1-1/2 ounces of ONR, and six microfibers later all is well again:







    Pretty rough, I know...now if you'll excuse me, I'm turning down the A/C...

    Sheesh, is that due to the fact of having to park under a tree or is just like that out in the open?

    Thanks James - pollen is pretty rough around here at the moment - could actually use some rain!
