It was 25 degrees F on my front porch this morning. It snowed yesterday here. Suppose to have rain showers starting tomorrow and lasting to next week. At least it not all the time we do have 100+ F during the summer. Cold concrete is a bummer to lay on.

It's not that cold. I drove to work today. Temp was a scorching 24 degrees. I must have been quite the sight driving down the freeway all bundled up. I'm thinking this was the coldest temperature I've driven the buggy in.

Tom I feel for you. Done in my younger days. Just to cold with the moisture in the air for the bones now. With the wind chill factor it was probally that cold on the trip back to Nipton from Laughlin last year.

You guys spend a whole lot more time behind a keyboard than I do. I like working on the buggies or out playing with them. There always something to do.

I'm only online when I run out of parts or money. Lately I have lots of time on my hands. I'd love to be out in the garage improving the buggy but unfortunately those things are on hold.
