    As luck would have it, my heat is out too! Off to menards to get some heat tape for the pipes then turn the water on real slow so nothing freezes. Dunno what I can get done...I don't dare start building computers when it's this cold. (Brittle for one thing...computers that normally fail might run fine this cold.) I think I'll go home and deal with this GL issue.

    I was wrong...
    Wasn't the gas, she bogged out today threw codes. misfire piston 3, multiple misfire. so not plugs, wires, gas... Went and bought a coil pack as that's next logical step.
    Boom! Truck back to 100%
    80 bucks as it's a single unit but need that truck everyday
    Was starting to think It might be a sticking valve problem.. PHEW

    Beautiful day today with temps in the 60's. That can only mean one thing...snow tomorrow.

    It's 78 right now, but we could use a storm or two. We really need the rain and hardly any in January.

    Just south on Boston Ma, so we had the "Blizzard" and then a week later another foot
    There has been no melting and they say another foot coming in the next couple days




    Note the neighbor building , about 20 foot tall with a flat roof >> They spent 2 days shoveling the snow off the roof. The pile now reaches the roof

    Upper 60's today and the grass is starting to turn green.

    Edit: Apparently we set a record of 74 today.
