Good evening folks.
We had a nice and sunny here too and even a more beautiful evening John. How many more pieces to go?
I always think that I should put up my Christmas lights when it's still decent out but never do.
Sounds like you had quite the day Perry, for a change it wasn`t windy here.
What's in your forecast? It`s supposed to shower here, a few flurries starting Monday afternoon, I really hope that doesn't happen.

Supposed to be highs of 12 to 14 on Sunday and Monday, Tuesday is 9for a high and that's the last of any decent weather for a while. Highs are under 5 with one or 2 threats of snow. End of paint season on Monday would be a fluke if Tuesday is warm enough. Really pushing this one, about par for the course. Lol

That still sounds better than our forecast, it will be freezing at night and barely over that during the days. The best we can hope for is no rain or snow and no wind.
I've still got a list of pre winter things to do, wish me luck.

Morning everyone. My first weekend off since the end of September. I worked 46, 10 hour, days straight. Decided I needed a few days off from all that work, so I don't go back to work till Thursday.
I also had some bigger tires put on my truck. I got 275/70r18 Cooper AT/Ws from Canadian tire for $210 a tire. I'm really surprised in the little 5.0 engine in my truck. I figured with the 3.55 gears, my truck would down shift into 5th a lot more and I would notice a power loss. To my surprise, they're hardly noticeable. Now I just need to re-adjust my mud flaps because the tires rub on them whIle turning sharp.
Hope everyone is staying warm and healthy.

Nice to hear from you Randy. I have heard from others that the 5.0 is a great motor and performs better than expected. I have had a few sets of Cooper tires and they have stood up well to gravel and dirt roads and the traction has been good on icy roads.

Good day folks.
My pre winter list is under control
Perry but another week or so of good weather would be nice.
Good to hear from you Randy, sounds like you have really good job security!
I've always liked Cooper tires on my older Mustangs.
Hello John and Ian, have a good day!

[QUOTE=yamagrant;16719263]Happy Sunday eve'all. Nice to hear from you Randy. Jets won, Bomber's lost.
I`m real sorry to hear about your mom Grant. My wife`s brother is going through his last days with cancer.
I`m quite surprised that the Bombers lost, they looked good on the earlier sportscast.
Still have to put up my Christmas lights, I spent the afternoon trimming more trees and ran out of daylight.
Likely later this week it'll be freezing solid here.

It was so nice today that I put another string of lights up. Matthew had his first hockey game of the season which they won. So they were excited about that. Also did a little house cleaning in the garage. I hope your mom can be comfortable and enjoy the rest of her time Grant.
