Cold weather ALWAYS comes too fast for this wussy. Luckily winter is short and mild here. IIRC, last winter, the shop heater only ran, off and on, for about 2 months. I think we went through around 160# of propane.
September 28, 20223 yr Popular Post lol, on the no likey the cold. our goal was i was to retire and we were gonna head back east to visit friends and family in indiana and georgia but last project took too long, and i told the ole gal, not gonna go cause i'd have to buy some new long legged trousers, i've worn shorts for decades, even on what some would call cold days here, back when i was in winter sports or hunting i did of course dress for the occassion, but can share, in hours i was back to the warmth of the desert. here is a picture of a couple years ago, when on our way back from comikali for the holidays we got caught in the snow storm that closed the pass on hyway 5 in kali. we tried to go east over another area, but folks couldn't figure out how to drive in the white stuff, and we were helping them get back on road and away from the deeper snow. took us over 24 hours to drive from san fran to phoenix, whew, idigits all, this was a day or two after xmas a few years ago. hehe, me no likey the white stuff either anymore. rj in az

September 30, 20223 yr Popular Post Out here in the desert it is still on the warm side of things. Finally feeling better after this Rona debacle and spent some time out in the shop today…swapping the pads and rotors on the FJ. Managed to get over 140k miles on them so I guess that isn’t too shabby. A little more general maintenance stuff to take care of and I can get back to building wood stuff.
