    Too cold?

    It was 48 degrees where I was on New Years Day.

    That's 48 Clesius or 118degrees Fahrenheit.

    same here dodge man, my van is at a buddies shop getting some welding done. It has been done since Friday. He was nice enough to let me keep it there till this snow and cold is done. Just cleared a spot for it with the snow blower. Thought I would get alot done this winter, but not so sure now

    No Shop...No work on Van. And now, before I can even look at my van I need to build another snow plow or fix the flat head 6 in my current rig and have it ready to go for next year. Only good thing is, it's looking like we will have 3 weeks off for summer this year. Hopefully I will get something done on the van.

    I know the feeling. I have the dog house off hoping to get it painted and re-insulated and have gotten no where with it due to being -15 with windchills at -35+. Starting to warm up and not it is time to play catch up on all the things that could not be done. Truck gets to wait a bit longer I guess.

    maybe get some work done sat. its going to be near 50 so I can get the garage heated up and spend the day out there, my little heater wont heat up my double car garage when its below freezing and I have it insulated too, I just have a wall mounted natural gas heater from lowes, if I go out the night before and crank it up I can get it up to 70 when its in the 30s outside, but when working on a creeper on the floor its about 50, my old bones cant stand the cold anymore,
