Cold actually. Not real bad, but we are looking at near record lows... what happened to all that heat we are supposed to be trapping? Actually felt pretty nice for the day to me, not real hot, but not real cold either. Morning was a bit brisk... I got a few things done before I had to ruin my day with work... I finally got the starter on the 150 4x4 that showed up at my place, to find I was right,the motor is stuck, but don't know how bad stuck. The PO had said it ran, and my friend that gave it to me is sure it should be fine, so I'll have to see if it is just because of the wonderful humidity in Iowa, or if it is worse than that..

Have fun with the tire torture test, been a while since I did that kind of thing. Been years since I went to Canton, but it helps to live in the area, since I am now 6 hours drive away...
