That's only $5.03/US gallon. (3.785 L/Gal) Plenty more than I want to pay, for sure.

I am not sure any of us would claim to be from here. I was born in Minnesota. This city is so crowded now it is amazing. Freeway traffic is always bad during the hours from 6:30am til 7:00pm almost every day including weekends. Almost no public transportation and some say 7 million people in the area.

Yep, it was about 102 in my garage today. I've got some stuff to do on a buddy's truck but it is for a buddy and I don't feel like workin on my stuff, I aint workin on his either. Its HOT. I know I posted about our guys and I hate it for them and I think of them often but this heat just kills me and my head (Chronic Migraines/Clusters) Just too hot to do much and lack ambition too

I don't really know of any right now. I've got a pretty rough '56 F100 but its not great. There's supposed to be a junkyard around Bardstown that has some old iron in it? I'm not sure, I've not seen it for myself.

I was born in Benson. Still have many relatives in Minneapolis and down in Elmore near the border of Iowa. I have heard that the area of Minnesota where Hibbing is, is the coldest area of the US outside of Alaska.

Dang, I quit workin' in my garage when it gets over 80 in there. One of the good things about NH and being retired, it will wait until tomorrow. I remember working in 100 degree garage temperatures in my youth when I lived in Florida but I can't do that anymore...

I have an 80 degree rule as well.

Today it broke it.

At least 80 degrees is drying out my yard a bit.

We are having a cold front come through this weekend, with a temp of 95. Another good news is gas has dropped to $3.10. What a reliefit is.
