not that i've herd, my sister went in to work at 9

so far so good here . . . im in glenpool 10 min south of tulsa. . . Roads not to slick trees starting to sag (my least favorite part) power hasnt flickered or anything . .. i donth think it will get much worse but it will probably be here for a few days . . .

I got a bunch of stuff i want to do this weekend that the ice will keep me from doing . . .and i got alot of stuff (inside) that i need to do (and dont want to ) that i will probably end up doing b/c of the ice !!!

Supposed to take the daycruiser for carpet in the morning to salvador in ft gibson (45min southeast) but thats pretty much out . .. supposed to stop by muskogee and eat lunch and look at a bunch of harley parts to buy from a buddy (i buy and sale hd parts on the side)

But on the bright side i should get some shop time . . .need to pull the motor out of the stock car (sold the one in it) build the new motor (which every thing is laying there all brand new ready to clean and assemble)

Pull the motor out of the hydro and put it in the daycruiser
pull the motor out of the 57 and pull the pistons and rods out of it and find a new home for them, pull the pitons out of the boat blower motor that is now going to gas flattops and find a new home for them . . . etc etc . . . i got a weeks worth of inside work . . .

I'm about 30 miles south of Nitsud and its solid ice. left the house this morning it was 36 degrees and raining it arse off, but as soo as it hit it froze. Still have power as of about 2 hours ago, lots of trees down. In Tulsa is snowing pretty hard

No ice on the roads out east 412. Didnt hit any this morning till we got to Tulsa.

soooo it sounds like i need to go get my propane tank filled for the shop then if shit happens and we lose electricity, i'm phucked whole place is full electric, but i have propane heat out in my shop. gonna be out there alot this weekend anyways, guess i'll go load up teh big tank at lunch

Pretty big storm, my vendor in Memphis just called and they are getting slammed. She said they are shutting the city down.

Lost power 7:30 thursday evening and didn't get it on till 11:45 today. Was sure glad I have a fire place in the house, didn't get below 65 deg. My generator used 3 gal. of gas running coffee pot frig and two lamps over a 16 hour period. I think I will leave it on the porch till this shit is over, might need it again. Started snowing about an hour ago I guess winter is just showing it's ass again. Sure be glad to see summer get here. Hope everyone else made out better than we did.

So the hydro is now going to be blown gas this year? Why did you decide against the blown alcohol deal you were building for it?

My wife still wants to drive it and i decided to make my car the non freindly one and the boat kinda more lakeable . . . a 125mph rocket is fun but a 100mph but that looks like a 125mph boat is funer . . .im 30 as of sunday so im doing the more logical things !!!!!!! J/k I wanna have fun not babyset
