Good evening Illinois and Ford Truck enthusiasts Sean, Ken, and Don!

Had a damn cold morning here 29° and frosty. We recovered nicely to 68° with plenty of sun. Worked my **** off in the yard today. Tomorrow will bring rain.

Yeah we would roast hot dogs on our fire pit and have to shower afterwards because of the fire smell on us.
