I know I could handle it, but I would have to buy new clothes, my 2 pair of jeans and all the rest shorts would not cut it. I could make it but I would be bitchng like a little girl, ask my wife. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted January 7, 2017 Moderators Share Posted January 7, 2017 I had no idea, looks like it has happened a few times, I must have been hiding ? I bet the plumbers were busy replacing frozen pipes, houses are not really prepared for single digits here. I know in New Orleans most of the houses are raised and most have no insulation around the pipes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Nice and breezy here today after last night's cool rain. They think 28 tonight for a low and maybe another night of similar. Yews, you do not want any trouble especially around here with frozen pipes. I could tell you war stories about that there. Drinking a cuo o joe before I pop a top here...cheers... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 For sure @Tarheel...remember it well, as that year was a medical one for me. In the local hospital for 20 days, dangling my thumb...(foot) There was something else was going to correct but, not going back now...Onward...we come too far to let a little blizzard stop us... Besides, I will soon have a little de-icer in my veins... 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 My place here in the city is for the most part on a slab . The bathroom however is raised a bit and for the last few evening have been hearing a cat that sounds like could be in the process of bearing or raising a litter. So there is a crawl space. Just heard the cat again as a reminder. Spoke to the cat before while hearing it. Do not mind the very occasional noise, especially as I like cats and it is a might cooler. The peace of mind I have is that the hotwater heaters are located at and very near where she/me are located for the complex. I will run some hot water for her tonight. Some Ferrell cats they say are around locally but, we all have to survive...Peace. Almost forgot, a tree fell somewhere nearby while having my coffee early this morning. Went outside but did not see or hear anything more. Locals had quite some trees down during Hermine. City and county still working on it... 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 What's important is that when the tree fell, you heard it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
