35 now in Grass Pants, OR. It has been 23F this week, some days
warming up to a balmy 40, others to a roasting 50. We're due for a
cold snap next week. Time to stock up my pantry, just in case.
That white stuff makes going up the steep hill to town quite a chore

Unless you have some sort of Limited Slip or Locker in that truck,
it's only 1X1. Hit a patch of ice, and you aren't going anywhere.
