    That's what I love about the Michelin LTX. Awesome all around tire and never once have I been stuck in the snow. I got 78K out of the original tires (Same LTX that I out on again) and even in the last winter they went through the snow easily even at their end of life. They arnt cheap, but getting 75-80K, 900 bucks is well worth it in my book and every tire center I talked when pricing them to said "best truck tire you can buy".

    Waiting for a non-windy day. I have no patience and the leaves blowing around faster than I can get them piled up is just a lesson in futility.

    Yeah, windy and cold here today so raking or blowing would have just pizzed me off but I use the lawn mower. Just a walk behind with a bag so today was an empty the bag after every 1-2 passes type of day. I didnt go crazy, just getting up the heavy stuff and dont care if there are a few leaves left behind-they wont be the last ones.

    I dont know why but even when a huge gust came around and blew leaves into the area I had done-it did not bother me. Guess I was just ready to be outdoors and doing something mindless for a change-it was actually a great afternoon for me and my honey just doing our thing-she was working the gardens digging up annual bulbs and planting perennial bulbs. :)

    Propane eater hasn't run during the day today, but I'm guessing it'll be firing off any time now.....37* outside on home thermometer.

    Edit: 8 minutes later and it just fired off.

    30° here already... Temp has dropped fast.

    I hope to not fire the furnace before Thanksgiving. (Hoping)... Normally below freezing and the Fahrenheit is in use. It's not cleaned yet and I won't have time until next weekend to do a deep clean.

    We should be warm enough tonight with these two... :D

    That's cool grebda, we're only razzing 'ya because it's not too overdue at this point, winters are long, and if it's gonna fail, that usually happens at the worst time / under harsh conditions. Just looking out, is all. Peace!

    Dex, you have more stoves in your home than some of the stove shops around here. Nice!
