NEW YEAR In Fairbanks


So the years are getting older. another one has passed us by.  yes i went out, Kurt was having dance a Pikes, so got all wrapped up in the required layers, and went dancing, the dance floor is a bit on the small side. Practice for other  places  i guess.
 now i do try my best to not talk about the weather but.... 
 forecast was for -49 .   Going past Fred's temp sign said -50   there was quite a bit of ice fog,  i went out and stated the car at 10 30 as i wasn't plugged in. But had the car covered with my blanket and then a piece of Cardboard under the block ( it helps stop the cold air from the ground  getting to the block)
 and i had this brilliant idea of going out to take a photo, but.... it s cold and now it dark again.
my car has been behaving well, just the usual flat tires and having to spend time to warm up the car. we don't talk gas mileage this time of year.
 today is kinda warm   -25. and cloudy.

Brrrrrr. Sounds Chilly, Greece must be looking good by now. About 100 degrees warmer here in Payson, I'll be heading back to GJT in the morning. Hope your travels are pleasant. Happy Trails,
