BUT NOT SO MUCH THE KAKAKS.
In my defense I left my fish finder at home so I had to use the old fashion method to find the fish.

Yes it is a blast but I don't run good in the cold. I'm old. Too much exposure to cold weather and I can walk anymore.

I am also really looking forward to working the bugs out of her..

I can't complain to much about the weather here right now. 2 weekends ago it got below -10°. Then by the following Friday, it got into the mid 60's! Our average high for this time of year is mid 30's. Right now, it's 56° on my home outdoor digital thermometer! It's forcasted to be in the low 60's tomorrow. Crazy warm weather by New England winter standards!
I've had my cornhole boards set up on the lawn since Sunday. The yard usually have a thick layer of packed snow and ice during mid winter. So, like I said, I've got really nothing to complain about.

Yesterday I spent 3 hours on my 22 mile commute because a bunch of truck drivers decided not to chain up when the road was a sheet of ice. It was nice to see them getting ticketed though.

Our winter has been very up and down, snowing like crazy on my way home Monday night to sunny and dry today. Supposed to get back down into the teens next week and maybe get some more snow.


Sat in this spot for 2 hours.

Followed by about 20 more here trying to get over to the exit. The road I'm exiting onto doesn't allow semi traffic and a semi driver that was chained up was out yelling at these guys for being idiots. Cops looked a little unsure of how to handle it.

It no doubt was a adventure. :D

Worst was about a month ago. I was stuck for 5 hours behind a burning semi. Left work at 5pm and got home just after 11. It was frustrating because it was mostly due to incompetence on the part of the DOT. They could have pulled a couple Jersey barriers and either let people go through the opposing lanes or turn around and take a different route since they had the road closed both directions. Instead they let several hundred cars sit in the dark with absolutely no facilities anywhere close for 5 hours.

It was about 40° and raining so it wasn't like you could really get out and walk around.
 
It was absolutely great weather today! Very rare for the Cincinnati, OH area! Ran a tank through my USA-1 rebuild. Did alright, but think there is a leak around the fuel nipple coming out of the tank. Engine kept either stalling out because fuel wasn't flowing consistently and the engine was leaning way out even as I kept trying to richen it. One temp reading was over 200 degrees!

Need to replace the nipple gasket on the tank, or even better, find a replacement tank.

Regardless, gotnto burn a tank, so I'll take the partial win!
