Cold!

It was -2F below this morning, pipes froze, (-12F windshield) Got about another 12 inches of fresh powder last week. Time to go skiing and snowshoeing, must burn off my winter fat (coat) LOL


Stay warm!

out in the woods with the dog yesterday; it got so cold and windy I was tempted to look for shelter, then the sun came out and it warmed up 15 degrees. got home in about an hour and it snowed violently for about 1/2 hour and dropped 20 degrees
spent the evening in the garage (heated) taking a friend's KLR Kawasaki apart, it smokes a bit and uses a quart of oil in 4 miles. might be something wrong in there

whisper,
It's the same old shit. It has never been exactly right since the cam chain broke and now it sounds like it's missing on a cylinder. Runs like it also. Bogart's now has a new general manager and a new service manager so I am giving them another try. I hope they get it right this time. We shall see.

We had some weather here. Yesterday we had 50 mph winds which knocked down a tree and landed on my van. Looks like the insurance guy will total it-oh well, I was going to sell it anyway. I'm ready to go to a smaller van so just give me a check! This morning the tree guy came in -2 deg weather to cut the tree off the van. Brrr!
