Hey Guy's, how's your gas price and, weather doing for you? Super Unleaded here is, $1.99, a gallon. :thumbsup:

Best price, I've seen since the early 90's. Sucks though since, I won't get the Chally out, for quite a while. :cry:

We have been getting buried in snow. Forcast for tomorrow is, several feet in the Columbia River Gorge. With that turning to freezing rain, later in the week. I'm probably not going to be home, for Christmas. :s005:

At least I will be able to make some home's warm for other's.

$1.69/Gall. for 87 unleaded. E-85 is now more expensive. at 1.89/Gall. it's 17 degrees F. outside with 30 MPH winds and a near 0 windchill and 1/2" of ice on the ground. My Chocolate Lab Hershey loves it. I cant take it at all, sometimes I wont even leave the house for a few days. :frown:

Cmon,, summer!! The R/T is asleep...

Hope you get a break for Christmas Pat.

Seems like our power goes out weekly this time of year. Wouldn't want to be the guy going out to find the problem. Pretty cold out here also. :s026:

Be careful Bud. :thumbsup:

My sister in, Dallas,Fort Worth said, she got gas for $1.48, the other day. And, I hear you can get it as cheap as $1.29, in Sundance, Wyoming. :s008:

What's going on guy's?

How long, do they dangle the carrot then, rip it away and, charge us $5.00, a gallon?
I hear that they are going to shut down, some refineries to, bring up the worth of oil.

I hope you get the chance to spend some time with the family during christmas Pat! Otherwise, you can be proud of what you do! :thumbsup:

We have pretty okey price on the 95octane for now, about 2,64$ / u.s gallon
(approx 10Sek / Liter) Too bad these prices never keeps during spring..

They always rice the prices summertime (approx 3,96$ / u.s gallon during summer) :s001:

About 15 Fahrenheit i think. (-9Celsius) tons of snow. I really, really hate winter! :s006:

I wish you all a merry christmas & hope you get good holidays... :thumbsup:

Hi Jim and everyone!
I left two message's on Shane's phone. Again, no reply.

I would hold out on your trunk carpet unless, you find a awesome one, overthere. I'm going to find out, one way or another. :s017:

I called back today. Voice Mail, again. You guy's saw picture's but, they are really nice and, I do want to share. I'm going to call information and, get the parent's phone number. I'll keep you posted. :wink:

We have 15 degree's F., right now with blowing snow. No call's yet but, freezing rain tomorrow, in the forecast. That's when my phone will ring and, that's when I'll be out in it.

Have a good one, Boy's! Stay warm!
Pat

!t's 19*F, outside right now. We had a high temp. of 22*F, earlier today. It's a freakin' blizzard out there. All major highway's are closed until, later tomorrow. So far, we have dodged the freezing rain, bullet!

No call's this weekend and, we haven't lost power or even had any flickering light's. :thumbsup:

I've been trying to find that carpet kit, for Jimmy Boy but, I'll be damned if I can.

I haven't given up yet. :wink:

Take Care, Pat

Honestly. I am wearing a t-shirt today. I just heard the temp is going to reach a max of 9C (48F).

OK so I am throwing a light jacket over me when outside. :lol:

But I have not got it zipped up. :thumbsup:

by **Tim** » 22 Dec 2008 12:32

Where Dave lives, if you own a proper coat, you're considered effeminate.

True thing. :lol:

by **Adrian Worman** » 22 Dec 2008 19:15

Tim, where Dave lives if you own a coat your probably someones Nan.

by **botari123** » 23 Dec 2008 0:19

-gas price $3.80 a gallon
-snow we got 3 feet lst night
-snowmobile ride 100 miles last night
-new quarter $550
-tried a quarter skin but its scrap full quarter is very nice piece

by **Jon** » 23 Dec 2008 0:32

Gasoline went up to $1.99 this past week from $1.87. Some Holiday cheer for the consumers or maybe a new tax added. :roll:

California is in dire straights budget wise. Vehicle registration just went up 22%. For what??

Temp is 30-50F. Not too bad, and we are finally getting more rain. 2.5" so far this year.

You are an outdoorsman Botari? 100 miles in the snow it must have been fun. :thumbsup:

Any tails from the trail?

rain. 2.5" so far this year,wow your an inch and a half or so ahead of us we have only had 1.375 inches this year, i love climate change :s009:

by **patrick** » 27 Dec 2008 17:04

It's been raining here, for the last two day's. Still, four to six, foot drift's melting in my yard. I did make it home for Christmas, at six A.M., after a twenty-four hour, shift. Had to shovel snow, to get my car a little bit, off the street. Missed the inlaw Christmas, Christmas eve but, shared our family Christmas after I woke up, at 1:30, Christmas day. :s008:

Been a long time since, I slept in that much.

by **Eddie** » 27 Dec 2008 17:21

Man, Pat! You guys arent used to getting that much snow are you? Usually rain this time of year right. We just had an inch of ice at 5 degrees F. not complianing, everyone to the north of us recieved 3-5" of solid ice. I despise winter!! I bet Ryley has much fun it, my Lab Hershey wants to go for his daily walks but I dont go if it gets below freezin, glad to hear you made it home for the holiday.

by **patrick** » 27 Dec 2008 18:12

No Eddie, we're not. I don't think we've got this much snow since 1980. But, the ice. :worry:

Yeh, I'm used to that. Every year, we get that. :s001:

And that will be here, soon. My wife hasn't been to work, for a week. I keep poking fun at her because, she believe's in Global warming and, Al Gore. I was supposed to get off work early, Christmas eve. 12:00, noon. I called her at 10:00 A.M. and said that would not be an option. She said, "So, what time will you get off work?" I said, "Yeh, right?"
We're in deep snow right now but, the ice will surley be here before, it's all done.

by **dave-r** » 27 Dec 2008 18:14

That is a beautiful area you live in though Pat. :thumbsup:

by **patrick** » 27 Dec 2008 18:19

Yes Dave, I wouldn't trade for anything!!!

by **patrick** » 27 Dec 2008 18:41

I'll have a few more Pic's, later. :wink:

by **Jon** » 28 Dec 2008 1:32

A beautiful scene there Pat and quite dangerous at the same time. Essential to plan for the situations out there I bet. :s016:

Looking at the lines next to the trees, no wonder things go out. One branch and zipp. Curious if those phone or power.

by **patrick** » 29 Dec 2008 4:33

O.K., Boy's!, Here's a couple more.

by **patrick** » 29 Dec 2008 5:01

This is another day at the office. At least for this time of year. :wink:

You have to take the good with the bad.

Do I love what I do? YES! :thumbsup:

It is very dangerous and, as long as I keep my head out of my butt, I'll keep my feet above ground! :biggrin:

This job is not for everyone, though. :s006:

You have to be a little nut's to play in my Northwest, yard. :hmmm:
