Sounds like flip flop and tank top weather. It was supposed to be 45* today but without the sun it won't help much in the way of melting the sand

They've been working on the problem for the better part of 2 years now. Jeff one of the sales guys here, his wife works for the city. It has been a matter of funding, they know what needs to happen the city just doesn't have the money to do it. It's amazing what happens to a story once the national media get's a hold of it. Where was all this attention 2 years ago when people would turn on their faucets and the water came out brown. Lead was the least of their worries back then.

Yesterday had a mini GTG with a couple of the HD forum guys, nice to meet them and expanded my sausage/mushroom pizza tradition.

I tried the Ural this morning (infrared thermometer read -3 off the jugs), and it fired right up. Why can't my Harleys do that? Guess it doesn't matter, ain't gonna do any 2 wheeling in this weather.

Different pizzas for sure. Would like to have an oven like that place has. Like to have room for that oven even more.

Gonna be more like this around the country, infrastructure is really falling behind. Read a while back about some cities still using original wood sewer lines. Guess what's seeping into the ground under their feet... Minnysotans know about bridge maintenance...

Oh, I am sorry, Greg. Lunch break...the answer we were looking for was Lunch Break. We have a nice parting gift for you....a barely used HDF glass.
