This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    The driving ban has been lifted in my area after 3 days. Most businesses are still closed. Two of my cars that are parked outside had the engine compartments packed with snow that had to be cleaned out. One had the battery take a crap and froze solid, bulging on the sides. It was almost 5 years old so time to replace anyway.

    Its like ground hog day here, constantly snow blowing and shoveling every morning and afternoon, probably got 5 ft of snow over the last 3 days.. Currently 18 deg F here with forecasted temps in the low 50's for the weekend. Christmas was a bust for visiting anyone, oh well. Looking forward to going on a cruise soon.

    I don't expect a pity party, but by Florida standards it was cold here. On Christmas day it reached 52 degrees here in Naples, which made a new record for the coldest high temperature on December 25 ever. It was about the same today. I did about 1/2 hour worth of yard work this afternoon.

    Oh yes, today is the day. What is going to happen today? The sun is going to come out after almost 4 agonizing days. It is getting brighter and brighter right this minute and in about one hour I will be looking up at totally blue skies and a bright sun. The temperature? The temperature will be going up and up and up. It is already 61°, and we are predicted to hit a high in the lower 70s today by afternoon. Maybe I should open up the windows and doors in the house to let the warm air in.

    As John Everett would say, show me a picture or I don’t believe it. Here’s a picture of my northwest sky. The clouds and associated moisture are heading to the Southeast. So more and more blue sky will be opening up very soon. I can’t wait! 5100732E-21E9-4DEF-A294-EC899CB56A2D.jpeg

    Look at this! I went in the house to brush my teeth and wash my face. When I came out I see even more blue. I can hear Elvis singing right now, “I’ll have a blue Christmas without you!” D963D0DE-B4B8-4FCE-B0DB-4B584EDC5AE2.jpeg
