Rick,


Friday morning when I arrived at my car, the doors were frozen shut. I couldn't open them without fear of damaging the door gaskets. So I stayed home Friday.

Try putting some ArmorAll or WD40 on your gaskets the day before an ice storm is forecast.

Or take a day off

I like the day off option the most......oh wait, I'm retired, I have every day off:muted:

Hopefully, you can send some of that rainfall down this way so you don't have to keep mending fence. I'd appreciate it.

That is an awesome looking house, both outside and inside from the pics anyway.:thumbsup:
As for 'Puddles', it is a Chev, Chevs and Harleys are always marking their territory. :laughing:

Thanks Look, I have been cutting holes in the floor today for six 4x14" registers. Trying to get the heat a little more even up from the basement.

I have not taken the time yet to pull Puddles's pliugs & do a compression test...maybe this week since it's going to be in the 60's.

Knocking out little stuff here. Cutting holes in the floor & dropping in the vent registers...4 done 3 more to go. In case your wondering they are 4x14 & will not fit EastWest between the joists, so they all have to go NorthSouth. All ended up parallel to a wall except for this one:

We really needed a pot rack, so I scavenged this old bedspring from a small abandoned "dump" on the backside of our property. I pressure washed it, then sprayed Krylon clearcoat on it, wired it to two old 3/4" iron water pipes placed across the tie poles:

I used scraps of copper electrical wire to make hangers attached to some cast iron monkeys that are the pot hooks:
