Got up to 28 today. Felt like summertime. Long range forecast is 8-12 inches snow on Christmas Day.

 

No white Christmas here. Callin for 47° on Christmas Day.

 

Hey Doc, Tick....high 30's and low 40's rest of the week.No sn8w in forecast, which is good. Going to Harrisburg on Thursday for son's graduation Friday morning from the PSP Academy. he has his final exams tomorrow. they use a cumulative svore, he said he'd have to get -46 on final not to pass. He has the highest averages in every category. He should be walking on stage a lot on Friday.

 

Good deal Al. I wish him the best of luck.

 

Went out for the snowblower belt (fixed it), got warm enough for the salt to start melting, and of course they poured a lot more on, so the snowpack that was easy to drive on turned to greasy slush. Left the van in the street for a few hours for the salt water to drip off, stuff makes a mess in the grudge. I talked to a guy a couple years back that rode his Ural all winter, even in the salt slush, and he parted it out in the spring, said it rusted beyond economical repair. About what my van will be in a year or two...

 

Finished wrapping up the grandson's Christmas present, glad I kept the box. He said he really liked my 32" monitor, so I'm recycling it.

Gives me an excuse to get a 40" I've been wanting...

 

Thanks, Doc...he'll probably have to be on the road for a year or so, then move into what he's been doing for past 7 years. He'll be stationed up where I meet the Geritol Brigade so I should be OK if I accidently exceed the speed limit.

 

Cold Tuesday morning to ya.... GET UP!!!!!!!!
