It had been leaking out the top since I got it. I just kept adding oil to it. Not sure what was holding that end plug in there. Looks like a flat freeze plug to me. Either way, it's not going back in.

Hi Clint
We had an accumulation here too but it was more like low 80's BBQ weather. Seriously I thought you guys were warming up back there

I thought about that when I wrote the post...the Cheech and Chong Big Bambu paper that came with the record should work!

So that is what snow looks like. Sure makes it hard to drive with the windshield all covered up doesn't it? LOL.

Those're harder to find than a NOS '70 grill with inserts

I ordered a Moonalice hoodie about a year ago. It came with a pack of rolling papers in the pocket. It sez: "Moonalice presents: The tiny notepad for big ideas". Inside it sez: "In case of emergency, use two". Probably put me out faster than white lightning.

Now I'm wondering what repro "Big Bambu" rolling papers would sell for...

FWIW, the only thing I smoke around here is the occasional Tri-Tip. What hickory chunks do to tri-tip ought to b illegal -- that stuff's ADDICTIVE!

Don't know how hot it was here today, some say 91, others say 85. It was hot, but I used the AC in both my Fords, so I did not care. LOL.
