Good Taco Tuesday evening Illinois and Ford Truck enthusiasts, Sean, Ken, Rod, and Neil!

Was a very pleasant day here in the River City, sunny, very cool, and we never left the 70s.

Will be in the low 50s come morning, with another cool day on tap. I hope Ma Nature is treating you well?

Howdy Don!

I didn't think that I would see you here tonight.

Little breezy is it? I hope that you didn't have any damage?

I saw on tonights news that the storm just ran over you.

Glad to hear that you didn't receive any damage.

I saw somewhere that Ken had tornadoes in his end of MA.

We were cool and sunny today. Started the day at 59° and never got out of the 70s.

Tomorrow morning will be in the low 50s, tomorrows record low is 51° and has the chance of being broken. LOL
