Copy that. Started snowing 9n us while qualifying. Round 2 ready or not. CRAP!
My 6 yr old says “Suck it up buttercup!!!”
She says you will be alright Uncle Jimmy.

Jumped in the time machine today. Waiting in line to get sprayed. For you aviation types, that is a Dassault Falcon 900. Picture is crap through 1” thick heated wet glass.
Exactly 2 hours and 30 minutes later, BINGO! Palm trees and 77 degrees.
They’ve wised up.....they charge 95% of what the whitey/round eyes stores do.....I don’t buy on the res anymore, they don’t patch potholes on I5 like the state does......
We shut down the APU completely and shut off the engine bleed air valves while they idle. It just insures the cabin doesn’t wreak like burnt antifreeze. Most these guys are not real careful about where they spray, even when you tell them specific areas to stay away from.
I’ve always just shut them all down. I hate having to get sprayed, it’s nasty and the plane drips that crap for a week after! I fly a “Barbie Jet” so I try to keep it in a hangar instead of having to deice.
Ahhh, makes sense. I figured they were all 500 pound gorilla with the spraying! Like a bet between the crew to see who could snuff-out the APU the fastest.
We hate it too. We had just come out of our heated hangar, but by the time you fuel, light the APU and get everything on line, it’s too late. Sometimes a heated facility is the kiss of death. A cold soaked airframe is usually better, but we go when “they” say go. Can’t pick your days.
Been wintery here lately. Below zero, snowing and blowing last few days. Got above zero today and the wind settled down. Put a few rounds through the new LCRx 357, out in the backyard.
08 FEB 2019, 1755, looking to the west out the big-ass mezzanine level windows in the second floor atrium at Lankenau Heart Institute in Wynnewood, PA. I had to sit and ingest some carbohydrates, as my blood glucose level had dropped to 65, so I did the Philly thing and scarfed down a Tastykake Peanut Butter Kandy Kake 3-pack for 31 grams of pure energy. They tell me that I'm continuing to deteriorate, but not as quickly as they had been expecting, and we made a June appointment to do another look-see. It's been 18 years since I got the CHF diagnosis, and I'm so far out under the edge of the survival bell curve that I'm just about crawling for lack of head room. I don't happily do rush hour traffic any more, especially not this close to the city, so I decided to treat myself to dinner out down there. I'm alive, damn it, might as well enjoy it.
I went for Korean. Shiny, shimmery walls and filigree hanging lamps inside the place on Lancaster Avenue in Ardmore, but thankfully, no huge TV screens and blaring K-pop music.. They were packed to the gills, mostly with young couples out on date night. I had to stand there, balanced on my cane against the wall, looking like a lost cab driver waiting for a fare, until a two-top freed up, and they sat me, probably out of pity. The restaurant is on the Main Line, a series of towns straddling the principal westbound SEPTA commuter rail line, the name coming from it also having been the "main line" of the Pennsylvania Rail Road. Lots of Thurston Howell types the further you go out, as well as academic types and yuppies closer in; Haverford, with its eponymous college, is the next town west, followed by stately Bryn Mawr (with its own liberal arts college, and a Ferrari dealership), Villanova (with a university), Rosemont, Radnor, St. Davids, Wayne, and ultimately Devon, and then Berwyn, and then Paoli, as the cotton gets deeper and higher. You go from where the people enjoy riding someone else's horses, to where people ride their own on immense estates.
Mmm, Caffeine! The promise of a sweaty, icy glass and an unopened can, and then that first sip. I won't lie. I so wish that it could have been a beer.
I'm sitting there, half-starved, patiently waiting, staring at the table bell, which is on the wrong side of the table for me to operate. Doing the arm semaphore thing is bad manners in the culture, evidently, so you buzz the help. The reflections on the table are of the ceiling and its artsy suspended wooden railing. Damn, I'm cold and hungry, perched by the front door. Don't make me beg, Please?
Food! The top is called haemul pajeon. It's sort of like Chinese scallion pancakes, or Vietnamese banh xeo. This one is full of seafood. The bottom appetizer are mandu, like Japanese gyoza. These are deep-fried, and full of kimchi and pork. Insanely good. I've never been to this place, but it's convenient as hell for me down there and they do lunch.
More food! This is what I was really coming for, a stew called soondubu jjigae. This particular one is haemul, or with seafood. Getting a theme here? It comes out literally molten, and an egg is cracked into it and then swirled around, like, well, egg drop soup. Soondubu is soft tofu, and besides the tofu, it's crammed with shrimp, shellfish, mushrooms, and only God knows what else. Besides being like lava, it's highly spicy, full of a red pepper paste called gochujang. This is like rocket fuel on a winter night, and I savored it.
Meet Bam Bam the Monkey. He knows how good it is.
Grazing libtards everywhere. I think the blonde was either bored out of her mind, or looking for something that might not have been forthcoming from the testosterone-challenged, wandoleer-headed soy milk guzzler next to her.
I snagged a couple pics from today’s travels. I’m about 1200 miles in an might have to call it a night of this fog gets any thicker
I’m getting tired of the white shit.@1J04, @Mooseknuckles.........the white shit has started back up, headed your way, give it 3 hours. This time, we got wind.......Probably gonna have to go to aux power
s'posed to be 4" tonight and 12" tomorrow afternoon/night.
I’m up in km mountain right now fixing a plow truck. 35 degrees and raining like a bastard.
Trip is turning to shit, bought a new phone last week before we left, looks like I dropped it in the uber tonight. They are not being very helpful so far, I may have to advise you guys of a new number.
I have had trips like that.
Keep us advised.
say the word and we can fill the old phone with gay midget porn.
1433 miles,

And I had to snow blow the driveway when I got here. Time for a cup of Joe!!

Glad you guys made it home safely.
The news was showing all the snow and accidents and it didn't look like any fun

Jamie flew home with her mom and sister. They made it home before we were in Tennessee... there were vehicles in the ditches from Tampa all the way to the house

just as pretty there in the winter as in summer
Good news at last, find my phone does work, Fernando the uber driver who does not understand English is on his way here with my phone. If I can unlock it my earlier number should be working again. He arrived, phone now working.

Test drive a WRX STI..."Oh, I see you got a new rifle. It's cute! Why am I still driving that 14 year old truck again?"
If they do one in turbo I may have to get one for myself.
Our first Subaru, but I am impressed with the ride, handling, and tech so far.

My travel partner for years shooting pistol comps is on his third one. We used to trade driving every other weekend. By the time we'd get to the Ozarks in that WRX he'd have you tired from being G'ed out
Yep, got another foot yesterday afternoon/last night. Lost power, went to generator. I was very impressed. PSE got our power back on in about 3 hours. For as many people that were/are without power, that was pretty damn quick. Not snowing now, but the fun is starting. Trees are holding a lot of snow and bent limbs every where you look. And, they're all looking for power lines to fall across. I didn't bother to roll the generator back into the garage last night after the power came back on.
That’s normal. It’s doing about 2900 at 70. It’s a little v6 Diesel so the rpms will run a little higher but the gearing in this one is a little better suited for city driving
Ahhh...this must be the van? For some reason I thought it was your truck. Seemed high for 6.7 at that speed to me.
375 in hand? Custom dies are here too. I should be fire forming this week with any kind of luck
Put a hat on that tall gal and you should be good to get away with using the carpool lanes.
4oz over 25lbs with an atlas 5h bipod.
Whats in the Kel-tec box? ?
We notice everything good sir.
Pretty sure that rifle is too big for me. Dang. Cant wait to see it in action.

That is the box that all my parts came in from the guy I bought it all from. I put it all back in there to make it easier.
