-38 was the low last night...no wind...so I don't know
if it got any colder or not. The SHO almost didn't
start this morning...anout 15 seconds of turning over
and it sputtered to life...one question though... Can
your thermostat freeze? Seemed like mine was this
morning...didn't open up untill it hit "O"...then
dropped back down...hasen't done this since the first
start...Can't wait till school starts again...leaving
MT thursday...NC...here I come...
