Hi Bear, Drove to midnight on Thursday. About half way through Illinois, all of a sudden big wind gusts and what looked to be a weird fog hit. The temperature dropped from 38 to 29. It was the leading edge of the first cold blast showing up. Thirty minutes later the temp had begun a return to 38. By the time I arrived at my hotel in Poplar Bluff, going south had gifted me a balmy 51 degrees. The last 50 minutes of driving was in rain. Got on the road yesterday at 8:00 and it was 48 and raining. After 1 hour 20 minutes it was blue skied for a bit and then overcast but dry till the last 100 miles of Arkansas (before I entered Texas in Texarkana. blue shy ,warm sun but 38 degrees, the cold was blowing South relentlessly. Had to buy some items Houston was out of so diverted to Home Depot in Huntsville TX which required dark night driving on windy and hilly parts of the The Big Thicket. Beautiful driving in the daytime, treacherous and night and slow. Got to my Houston house after 10:00 pm. Long grinding drive, but made it safe. Slept like a baby till 6:00 am. Thank God we had some coffee in the freezer. Just now checking the markets activity over the last two days. I have to engineer some insulated tunnels around my 7 citrus trees. I bought 200 feet of double bubble wrap with a plastic outside liner. I had already built waterproof outdoor extension cords to each tree. I plug in an electrical socket with heat lamp bubbIe tie strap the bubble wrap to a wire mesh that surrounds the tree. Necessary to keep the beavers from devouring the tree! Yes TX has beavers. Then top off the tree with a 10 foot "planket" (an umbrella like cover to a tree with a draw strap at the bottom). This approach has worked effectively in the past. I so miss my past neighbor (RIP ) who passed from cancer in 2022. Meanwhile Jan is snow bound in Wisconsin with 10 inches of snow and 50 mph of drifting snow. My good friend up there, plowed with a 4X4 truck for her yesterday and by 10:00 PM it was redrifted. Quite the storm. So big it will all but cover all of the USA! I feel lucky to have beaten the leading edge of that storm - really helped me pull this trip off. Looks like the Z will be cruising by this spring! You'll be happy to see that long job come to completion. Still always little things to maintain. I bought a "Car Capsule" for my Nomad. Great protection and well. I was sold well worth the expense. They had a 10 % sale at year end. Highly recommend it. They have a video where the owner throws a 10 pound dumbell up in the air and it lands on top of the capsule. Air pressure catches and supports it as it never come close to touching the car within the capsule. Stay warm and dry Bear! Bob
