29°F and cloudy this morning, got up to a whopping 39° here today. We got a little snow here Friday night, but only about an inch or so stuck, mostly on the non-paved surfaces. It's mostly gone now.
Oldest stepson's girlfriend came by yesterday with her younger sister. She came into town (from TX) a few days earlier than the stepson, and stopped by to visit for awhile. She's a sweet girl. Stepson flew into STL late afternoon today, and will be stopping by sometime this evening.
Spent the better part of the afternoon assembling a portable welding table I'd bought from Harbor Freight a few years ago, but left in the box. A couple of parts got assembled backwards, and only became apparent when the next part didn't fit. Probably should have followed the directions better. Wife wanted me to fix a toilet paper holder we have in the downstairs bathroom, which she'd dropped and broken at a spot weld joint. Fine opportunity to put the table together, I thought. About two-and-a-half hours later, the table was built, and the stand was repaired and back in service, courtesy of a couple of small welds with a 1/16" 7014 stick. Stronger than it was new. More importantly, though, Wife is happy.
Sad news about your neighbor, Randy.
Welcome to the GM thread, plowhog.
Good evening, gents.
