2019 General Chat
Started out at 37 this morning. Now that the sun is up it has climbed to 33, but seems to be stuck at that number for now.
Chris, Glad to hear the day went well. I took the day off from work, using up the last few days of vacation. Worked around the place all day. 32° here also right now, it's on its way down though.
I'm going to start doing that. Extending Thanksgiving weekend two days and then another long weekend later in the month.
