The PA Chapter's "Groundhog's Revenge" February 2022 Chat and B/S Thread

That was quick. With a blink, January's done and we're on to February. Let's see what the groundhog has to say in a couple days about winter - is it nearly over, or are we in it for the long haul? But, he's a groundhog,and about as reliable as the guys with all the science and stuff...

I've been up to my neck in work, projects at home, and truck stuff - so, apologies if I've not been spending enough time around the forum. Just a lot to get done before nice weather gets here, or a lot of planning for things to get done when the weather cooperates. Couple house projects coming up that I'm calling in contractors for (I don't do roofs anymore...lol) and I want to get on the books as soon as possible.

You know what to do, so, do it.

Good morning Keystoners. I'm glad someone thought the month went by quickly, Bill. I thought it dragged on forever. But, February has arrived and the coffee is ready.

good morning everyone.

i guess i am caving and changing the oil in the truck today since it yelled at me. Its weird because im still 800 miles short of 5k. not sure if its due to the shell rotella gas truck or winter but normally i use mobil 1 and the truck still shows 25-30% left before 5k.

Good morning, Gang! My truck is chirping at me 500 miles early too, Travis. The wife's Traverse is chirping at her as well. My garage is unheated & my truck doesn't fit anyway, so I guess I'm going to pay someone this time....

Howdy. Looks like it might warm up a little this week, but it was still single digits this morning. Oof.

Must be me then - I have a million things going on, so that might be the reason.

Good evening! I came out of work to 50* & sunshine! Guess who stopped by Autozone on the way home, grabbed some supplies, and changed the oil in two vehicles this evening?! I got a tire rotation done on mama's ride as well and washed the truck!

Now it's time for bed!

Happy hump day and Groundhog Day PA!
I bet anything that rodent will see his shadow and there will be six more weeks of winter!
