    I hibernate during the winter. I've got stuff piled up in the basement to tear down (wiring, computers etc) by the wood stove. The trailer is buried in the snow. The cabin I use for my shop is snowed in, heat shut off and not interested in shoveling the doorway. My scrap piles are buried in snow. If somebody called with something I didn't have to tromp around in the snow, I'd go get it. Otherwise, I'm not interested. This year, I've got a bunch of stuff to go on ebay, too. I intend to stay in the house and stay warm. I've spent enough of my life working out in the cold. Even plowing my driveway, I'll stay warm since the garage is attached to the house. The truck is backed in. I go warm the truck up (with the garage door open to let the exhaust out). Then plow as I drive out. Get done, back in the garage and go get a cup of coffee. I don't even wear a coat.

    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    You guys in warmer climates are lucky!!! Winter is the busy season for me. What I mainly buy dies in the heat. You just don't know until it's cold.
