Nothing, wind is too cold, but I have parts!

Was gonna work on the dozer blade & install the new tire chains + NOS seat bracket but the wind is strong enough to blow me over. 416H is in the driveway. Monday is another day. 312-8 has Armstrong rear tires. Dry rotted some, but I like em. New tubes & 90 degree valve extensions.  Went to Harbor Freight for a concrete grinding disc & the tire changer. Saw these black self adhesive step mats. New foot rests for the 416H. Will tarp her & put a 500 watt cage light under the tarp to warm her up. Probably add weather strip adhesive to em.

Same here but up to 3°. Had to go out and clear the snow that blew into the air intake for the water heater. Noticed rotten egg smell and I tried to blame it on Dog Gas but they both said they are innocent. No coal. Nat. Gas flowing thru the Airtemp 98%er!

We got 4-6 " on the overnight, still coming down.Once it stops, I'll plow.

3 of my Grandsons were here for Sat.night, but due to the snow they will be here another night. Not a bad thing!:)

Had some big gusts of wind but most of the snow is gone. And there is an unidentified bright yellow orb in the sky that I'm not sure what it's called but I know I've seen it before... :rolleyes:
