It is -3 F here in Beaver, PA. Going down to -8. And that will be the high tomorrow. But Spring is coming on Saturday, be in the 50s. I swear someone is controlling this weather somehow...

We are supposed to be -30 here tonight. Right now it's -14. That was the thermometer at our house this morning.

That used to be my Desktop Wallpaper for some time. A beautiful picture for sure.

Those fire pics are neat... is that something done intentionally to keep the switches movable in extreme cold?

I took an auto train from Gibson yard to Cicero last night and it was crazy cold. I think the wind chill was -47 when I tied up.

Took me an hour to dig the pin lifter out. *!greengrin!*

Would you believe that snow piled up from running through just ONE snow drift!
Stay warm folks!
