That's got be a good feeling to have a handle on the demand and not feel so underwater. Nice work.

Ray waiting patiently on some up dates for his.

Ray is from Michigan and wears a hat because its too cold and Jeff doesn't.

I suppose that bald head doesn't help.

I'm getting there, but it was cold as f*ck that day.
The three of us were sitting around outside on the patio, freezing our n*ts off, refusing to accept that it is, in fact, Winter.
Back in the 60's today, though.

Well, yeah.
Really the same here.
What we call "Winter" is really just a cool Autumn day.

It's been pretty warm around here lately, too. Nice to not have to wear multiple shirts and a heavy coat to be comfortable during the 20 minute drive to work...

This week, we will probably have a few where its 70°F during the day and 28°F at night.
Great for my trees and grass.

I don't get why people subject themselves to those conditions intentionally.

The Arizona weather must be nice, probably too warm for me in the summer though, I'd like a constant 20-25C. But cold weather is no stress for me logging-wise, winter tires on 18" Enkeis, doesn't feel any slower than stock and is very decent on the dry too

You get used to 40°C.
Its the couple of weeks of 45°C that make you work for the 6 months or so of
20°C.

I has a ?....


Is it just me or does the base map guzzle Oil? I've had to put another quart in once a week... I mean I do drive my car rather hard...but the most I had to do it was once a month. I know the OMP's output is increased...but is it supposed to be this much?

With light driving, you will use about 1/8 quart every 200 miles.
If you get on it, you should be using about 1/2 quart or a bit more in those 400 miles you drive a week. Maybe a bit more.
