Well it cooled down here in the late afternoon. After raining all day on top of the inch of snow last night. Now it's crunch, crunch, crunch when I go out behind the garage to get firewood.

Good pic of your driveway JP. Wish I'd thoughta that. I can see your garage doors are down and tight. Nice to be retired, right? If this is still in play Monday AM (doubtful), I'm calling in with a weather related absence. Not a good day for a AWD, let alone a 914, if you gotta come down off the hill.

It hit 78 in my backyard a couple hours ago, yesterday this was the hottest place in the continental US (well it was Anaheim, just a few miles away at 80 degrees).
Yes, I did manage to drive the "stuff" out of the P-car and enjoy it (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

It finally warmed up in Boring yesterday! Left the GDB campus at noon for lunch seeing the few cars here encapsulated in ice. Came back an hour later and all ice was gone (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif)

Had a skeleton crew of 11 people to take care of the 160+ guide dogs for 2 days in this mess of icy crap. Dogs were sure happy to get out once it warmed (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif)

Worked for the City of Dickenson ND way back when... fixin water mains in the winter.... Giant hole 8' deep with 2-3' of water in the bottom... we all wanted to be down in it when it was below zero on top of the hole. Water was 50 degrees & felt like a hot tub! Go figure (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

Just got back from our Petoskey, MI place and boy was it cold. Temp. was -0 to -4 with a 20mph wind for a -18 wind chill. I wish our Canidian friends would keep it North. Looking out the window the ice fisherman were in their shanties. You got to know these guys are crazy. Of course they probably had a little heat (candles), it's just the trip getting from shore to the center of the lake that's unbearable, Burrrrrr!!!
