I know don't hold my breath, but I hope it gets a bit warmer and drier over Christmas so I can get work done on my purple car.

I am sure you can get the Christmas lights up.........but for making the "Old Lady" happy that's about as likely as have all the lights work the first time.   :poopoke:  :smilielol:

So much for 'global-warming'.   :smilielol:


We had temps in the low 20s already, about a month early for my part of Alaska.


We also had our normal November windstorms in September AND October.  :faint:

I have no reason to punish anyone , + if I could find the door I would weld it shut !!
 I went through a 55* celcius [approx 105*F] shock to my body coming back from Panama 2 weeks ago in 12 hrs , then it cooled off here , it was +30C in Panama & hit -37C 2 days after I returned
 We had about 5 nice days all summer & basically skipped summer completely this year , I cannot remmeber a colder wetter summer , I never even plated my Charger , the weather was never nice enough to even bother , now we are back into winter until June , it has snowed into June the last 2 years

If this is the begining of winter (dosen't start until Dec.21) we are flocked for sure. At the moment we just have a "coating" of snow, mayby an inch but we also have lows in the mid/upper 20's. Not steady cold nights but for here and this time of year...............not a good sign or feeling. I'm going to see if MEK will come over and shovel my driveways, he got some good experience last year.  :roflsmiley:
