I had to move my van last night in order to back the car in. Forgot to plug it back in. Now I'm stranded with a cold dead diesel blocking my driveway. My choices for today was one out of two new builds to deal with, one waterfront, the other field front, both cold.
Sitting in front of my computer with my trusty oil filled electric heater next to me , it's even too damn cold to go out and sit in the hot tub.

And here my friend keep's telling me the city is supposed to be relatively warm.

 

[wildleg]

it's never too cold for the hot tub. NEVER.

(it was 46 this morning here in FL. brrrr. I'll be glad when this blizzard
is over tomorrow)

I haven't worked outside in the cold for the last 2 years. Some days I don't even change out of my pajamas. Retirement is GREAT :thumbup:

Why would you quote a pilot about something scientific. "Arctic specialist" is a little misleading seeing how his specialty has nothing to do with climatology.

This is my creative way to stay warm this morning (only -12C). Drove my truck up to the 25KV kiosk and ran the Ethernet wire through the window and into my laptop. Programmed the switching from the comfort of my truck heater. :thumbsup:

Block heater, battery wrap, or both?

Currently 4F.

Wind chill is for naked people and drama queens.

Major warm up here. Only -2F here tonight!!:thumbsup: Yesterday was brutal. Had to fix a broken spring on my trailer. Came home and the alarm went off on the septic system. Pipe was frozen in the outdoor pumping tank.
