With an expected -60 wind chill tonight I'm keeping Ken home for one more night...no sense in taking chances! And he builds a mean fire!!!!

Good Morning.

Finished Sprinter service before the storm started yesterday. Oil change, new front and rear rotors and brakes, Rear axle fluid, cabin filter, and some misc. cosmetic work. Spent more then I was planning, but should be good to go for a while.

My back is in a lot of pain since yesterday, #1 culprit I think was bad body mechanics with snow removal. I was twisting and throwing some light snow. I didn't think it would be a problem. Guess I was wrong :rolleyes:

Cold and snowy here at the yard. Gonna do some plowing.

I'm at the train station in Dearborn waiting to pick up a driver. Try and plow a path to Tim Hortons. I'll need some coffee soon. Train is running 2.5hrs late.

I had a dream last night that dispatch didn't call me about a load they booked me on going to SD and the high-low driver shows up with my 1 skid load, so i just took it. Is this the start of cabin fever? :rolleyes:

---Only good thing about all the snow, I think the draft problem under the house has been solved for a while :p
