Greetings from up here where the wind chill was closing in on -55F and tomorrow we will be warmer then Houston for part of the day. Crazy.
I hope all of you that are getting hit by the latest storm do ok. I have my generator ready to go with several 5 gallon gas cans full and ready.

Glad to see the wee ones are making some progress and hope that sis gets past the heebeejeebees of post accident. It sure can put a pucker in your shorts. My wife still struggles with one intersection here.

Take Care and Take Cover where needed folks. From what I can see in the forecast I will be shoveling again on Thurs/Fri/Sat and probably Sunday...not lots but about an inch or two each day. Our patio cover is showing signs of too much weight from the snow. I have to get it cleared asap. This will be a touchy job because of how it is positioned.

We had some fresh local Walleye and roasted asparagus tonight for supper.
I have decided its time to get the fishing gear out and take my daughter as soon as the season opens in the spring.

Altering the Phoo00 has been done. For some reason when I look into the Phoo00 pot I can see the skull and cross bones symbol floating in there.
Enjoy

-55*, is that C or F? I think tomorrow nights low here is -5*F. On the Kelvin scale it should be about 252* here! Sounds warmer using Kelvin scale!

Just got done with dinner. Made some Polish sausage and kraut for dinner. Used the Franks brand kraut, locally made Polish sausage, and some canned whole taters. Very good and i'll have alot of gas tomorrow.

at minus 40 the celcius and Farenheit [sp?] scales match and then it goes the other way...at -45C its right around -53-55F. I have seen minus 83 once. That was nasty...blinding snow...blizzard conditions for 60 hrs!

mmmm sausage. Eating fish feels like I hardly ate anything. hmmmm

Stoopid storm is making my satellite tv signal disappear. And right in the middle of Star Trek Next Gen too!

My office faces east and the wind is out of the east... can't keep this place warm!

I'm in the mood for a full body oil massage.

Thanks to all this nasty weather my flight to KS was cancelled. I now will miss my interview with Agco for a summer internship. Frustrated to say the least, have to call them in the morning as no one was answer this afternoon to see what they want to do.

Worst i've seen was a snow storm and -25*, thats nothing compared to -83*!

You are mising Star Trek?!? Thats not good, i'd be mad too, I liked the next generation series!

Funny your wind is out of the east and the wind here is directly off the lake from the north. It's brutally cold tonight with that wind!
