Merry Christmas and a happy NewYear of wrenching, searching the net for new or old parts, busted knuckles from loosening 50year old fasteners, great under the fingernails, etc

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with one day not paid, February 29, one day more to spring!

Finally the dark times have turned to longer days, even if it will go slow the first 2 months.

I have lived with snow or frosty weather for over 2 months now, only 3 months left if lucky ;)

Definitely NO global warming over here!!!!!!!
