Funny that you guys can make me feel like pansy shivering in 8* weather...

they fogged for bugs today so I took advantage, but I hear ya about the muggy. on a side note I had my little man here this morning, we were in my reloading room which also houses the furnace, and he flipped the switch to turn it off because he's 2.5 years old and it was at eye level. throughout the day it gets colder and colder and I can't figure out why, I figured since its just because of the -22. the guy who lives on the other side of the duplex knocks on my door and asks if my place is cold when he got home from work, I said yeah it really is. turns out it was 61 in his place and about the same in mine, we head down to the furnace to check it out and I see that little switch facing down. I flip it up, and I hear that little "woof" as the furnace lights up and I laughed my ass off. he looked at me like I was crazy til I told him what musta happened. kids

Back when I was fixing furnaces, I got lots of calls to go out and turn on a switch.
On a side note I made your (I think it was yours) chili recipe tonight, really good thank you

glad you liked it! I can't get enough of it myself I was relieved it was just the switch, because it meant I didn't have to call someone after trying to fix it myself and making it worse

Minus 1 here and clear.
The big storm missed us completely by about 25 miles. Most of the schools South of us were closed yesterday.

Not sure if I'm going either. I don't have license on my sled yet. Unless Jeremy finds an old sled to ride then I would ride his.

My dad would always bring eelpout home and boil it up for me. It is the best. Granted, I probly wouldn't have tried it if I would have seen what it looked like first.

It is considered to be "poor mans lobster" because of the taste and texture. Sure are ugly fish though. The annual festival should be soon on Leech Lake near Walker, MN
