Back into the deep freeze

Cold weather is moving back into the area tonight, with a low around 0 degrees F tonight and a high only in the mid teens tomorrow.

The bright side is there's a warming trend after that, with temps in the mid to upper 30's expected this weekend. I even saw one long range forecast that showed temps into the 50's by next week, but mos still show highs in the 30's maybe low 40s.

Today in the mail I got some new spark plug wires for my Guzzi. The ones I have in to now I mangled a bit last time I set the valves so I will replace them and keep the oldies as spares.

I started a new FaceBook group for Moto Guzzi riders in Nebraska.

Wednesday night I am really looking forward to meeting some of my good pals for a few pints and some tales at the Upstream Brewery.

Lately I have been doing really well putting in time on the treadmill my brother Luke lent to me. It's so much easier and nicer than having to bundle up and face the cold weather for some exercise. My lil workout room in the basement allows me to do the treadmill, work the weights a little and use my exercise mat for situps and such.

Maybe someday I will try to go to my brother Luke's pilates class....well, we'll see :-)

Life back here in Omaha has been a pretty big adjustment compared to Florida, but I am managing thus far. It's certainly been great to be able to see my good friends here on a regular basis.

Awww.....who needs 70 degree winters and ocean front drives when you can have 15 feet of snow in subzero weather!

Garage architect is working on the second floor concept as we speak. Maybe I will have something to show you when you show up for ale.

Michael- I will take the 70 degree weather and ocean front drives if you are willing to transport me to some old folks home down in some sunny state. This snow is mind boggling and very depressing- the only thing that saves me is watching all the Olympians having such fun in the snow! ecg
