Morning all!

Never had much trouble with how a date looked, just needed an extra drink or two sometimes.
That worked both ways I guess.

Enjoying a layer of ice covered by snow now, makes driving interesting.
21 degree's so don't think it's gonna melt soon.

And of course those living here have forgot how to drive on ice, body shops gotta love it.

Now that we may actually get ice on the lakes, going to finally get icehouse ready.

Have a great day all.

My deductive reasoning tells me body shops in the Orient never have slow periods.
