14 degrees here in Amarillo at 7 am. Too damn cold for me.
Been sick most the time since just after Thanksgiving, as has my wife and her cousin. We all had the Covid and flu shots middle Nov. My wife is in the hospital with Covid and Pneumonia but has gotten better. They are moving her out of ICU today, maybe home Wed.

Glad your wife is doing better. The temp here dropped 47 degrees since yesterday from a record high of 81. We will have a light freeze tonight.

Rich ,I'm Praying for you and especially your wife. Your cousin also. I lost a brother in law and a good friend  who was the most knowledgeable old Ford guy I have ever known to covin. Please be careful and get well. It's in the 30's here in Georgia right now with light rain and high winds. It will drop into the mid to low 20's tonight and possible some snow or ice about Friday. Yall stay warm if you can. Barry

Rich, I really do wish you and all of your family a quick recovery! not going to try stir the pot, but please ... re-read your own post and think about it again. There may or may not be  a connection between what you stated, but it somewhat smells phony to me.... I often wonder how today's meds are one size fits all. older, younger people, female, male, big, small, kids...just asking myself. I know about your health problems and will totally respect a decision towards prevention, but I can't help but have some doubts these days.... just worried about you guys.

Rich, glad she is getting better.  I had pneumonia a couple months ago and it is no fun.

Thoughts and prayers for speedy recovery for everyone!

Thanks everybody.I lost tract of this post I started, sorry. My wife is doing fine, came home Wedsday. We've been snowed in ever since. I don't even own a snow shovel, and wouldn't use it if I did. We had 4 days of freezing weather before the snow, so the roads/ driveway were too cold to facilitate the usual quick melt. I'm not sure I've seen snow sitting on well traveled roads so long in the 21 years I've been in Texas.

Yup, still have snow on the ground here as well.  Been a few years since we have had it hang around so long.  Did make it up to 36 yesterday....

Hey Guys.  Chiming in from LA. It was a rough week with the fires.  A lot of people lost the homes rich or middle class.  The fire didn't care.  Let's send some good vibes for rebuilding over to them.  A lot of car community guys lost their whole garages with cars and  everything else.  Malibu and Palisades will never be the same.  Altadena. Friends lost homes.  Basically the whole downtown is gone.  We were prepared with GO bags be we are embedded well east of Culver City.  Though we do have a small canyon and hill just south of us.    Outside the air quality was really bad all week.  Like walking in the fire.  It was just spread all over.  It's stating to clear up. 

Glad you're doing ok Abe. I've got friends in Chino Hills, which seems to be ok so far but I'm keeping an eye on it. What a mess.
Rich, also good to hear you and your wife are doing well. We were expecting snow & ice here south of Dallas, but just ended up with 3 inches of rain. I'll take that any day.

It was 18 degrees here in west Georgia this morning, we got about 2 or 2 1/2" of snow Friday and most of it is still here. It's the most snow we have had in a few years. The grand kids enjoyed it. I'm ready for springtime myself.

Today was a good day. Aside from feeling better, I was able to get out and hit the road for a few hours for the first time in 10 days or so. I did have to charge up the battery in my Outback first though, and scrape the windshield, but it sure felt great to just get out of the house.

While I wait things out.  I'm updating my windlacing from mid60-70 to the more correct soft rubber with fabric. I had to sew in the cardstock myself as the old one is not made anymore.  I also found a good amount of this at an old upholstery shop at about a quarter of the cost you see now.  I got one door done but still need a little fitment

Still looking for some 4 door sill plates. 

Also finished. The headliner and sunvisors on my F100 today. 

Looks great on both vehicles Abe!
