Your nephew would be looking to move if he were around here, I'm good at scaring off those that don't like to pull their own weight. Garage is getting to the point that the end is in sight, tomorrow is another clean up day but its mostly tools that finally get to go into the work bench tool boxes. I haven't been able to access the drawers for a few months because of how full the shop was, getting a truck out of the shop helped.

A day off and a free lunch Steve? Life is good. You work at Lowe's? Your nephew is still living with you?
It`s zero degrees so a chilly drive home this evening with the John Deere after roto tilling my neighbour`s flower bed, I just got home.

Hello Steve, that is true. I like having friends over for a big fire pit session on a cool evening.

I could have used a fire pit to warm up this evening, I got pretty cold going in road gear on an open tractor.

That is good. I picked up a motorcycle for a friend when I lived in Ohio. It was near 0°C and had to ride it 60 miles to get it to his house. Stopped every so often to sit in his car and thaw out a little.. When we got to his house it was about 4 hours before my knees thawed out.l

We're still enjoying this Indian summer, supposed to be 15 tomorrow. Its a good thing that this shop of mine is insulated, will make it a lot easier to heat it this winter.

I though of warming up before leaving for home but thought that I`d feel even colder after a short time, it wasn`t too bad and it didn`t take long to feel comfortable. Having to go on a 60 mile ride at close to 0°C would wouldn't be my idea of fun any more now.
We`ll be close to that here tomorrow Perry, around 12°C tomorrow. So far it looks like the end of Oct will be a lot nicer than the beginning was.
