Woo Hoo !!! nice wheels MRS Root
Thanks. Can you believe she won't let me put skiing related stickers on it?

Anyway, I just finished waxing up for tomorrow. It's PASR day at Blue. Of course there's a good amount of AZ crossover, so there should be a good turnout despite the cold.

Watching the Winter X Games for stoke!:spread:

Getting the house warmed up. -16 and windy here right now. 200 year old house is always cold and drafty when the wind blows. I overslept and let the fires burn down to much. It is getting there now though. Will be a cold day for skiing today. Dress warm!

Similar situation here our home is pretty well insulated BUT i have one small powder room on the NORTHWEST corner on first floor ,that even tho i've insulated all the pipes and the adjacent area inside where the plate reats on the foundation i had to do the OLD HAIR DRYER trick on the CW line this am . It worked to perfection the line opened up in about 30 seconds .


Guess i'm going to have to foam the outside too where the sill plate hits the poured wall foundation The room was an old side entryway 100 yrs ago and of course being in the NW corner its vulnerable

Damn winds were howling last nite and not sure of overnight temps but had to be about 18-20 below zero

Love our gas fireplace got it for xmas 1998

It -- saved our butts when we had the great ICE Storm of '98 when most were out of power up for 2 - 4 weeks we were comfy between that and 2 kerosuns which kept the basement area to keep pipes from freezing

Us, too, during that ice storm. In my house in Southern NH, we have two built-in gas fireplaces. Love 'em. My last house had a totally gorgeous, huge fireplace that was fabulous, but dragging in the wood and all the other parts of it made it a pain sometimes. Now we flick a switch. The one in the master suite is really nice when you get out of the shower on a cold winter morning.

And, CAMP...I'll letcha know in a couple of weeks. We're gonna take a chance. For $260 we just want it to be a little bit of heat when we come up here on a Friday night and it's freezing cold in the house.

Trying to get in a homework state of mind. Pulled out my 6-year-old iBook (that may or may not have a motherboard issue) since the Gateway laptop is on the fritz (won't stop restarting itself). This could be interesting...
