Good morning Art, Bret, Frank and all !
Morning all...
we've got a huge batch of blowin' snow coming in here....
We're supposed to get hit tomorrow with rain, then freezing rain, then snow.
Typical Western PA winter.
I hate freezing rain/ice of any kind...... Yesterday I could hardly keep my truck and trailer on the interstate!! Just maintaining speed I would lose traction and head for the ditch!
Here is our forecast:
Tonight
Much colder. Breezy. Snow in the evening...then a chance of snow after midnight. Areas of blowing and drifting snow in the evening...then patchy blowing and drifting snow after midnight. Snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches. Storm total snow accumulation of 13 to 17 inches. Lows 4 below to 5 above zero. North winds 10 to 25 mph.
And look what the cat dragged in. Been forever since I've been on here. I've been working with a Mechanical company thats installing a boiler in a town a couple hours away so I've been living the hotel life. I get the fun job of piping the heaters together- Belimo control valves, circuit setters, air vents, ball valves, coils and all. Commercial construction compared to residential service is...is...is... different thats for sure. Never used a pipe threader before but got that down pat now. I've pretty much done it all from run the supply and return lines off of the main lines right to the units to mounting the forced air wall units and hanging the overhead ones. It's been really good that I've been working in some pretty high and tight places-so long fear of heights. Best part is it's all tool time with the occasional lugging. And the company I'm at now uses Hilti. And I've got to help setup a Visseman Vitorond 200. Everything from the Vitaulic to the cover and chimney lol.
Great Journeyman. Doesn't bail me out of anything unless I'm in deep. I've also got to see some gas stuff but since I don't have a license about all I do is paint pipes. Also I've got to run a lead or two on the tin banging side. Only downfall? No time for anything but to get to the top of the hill you gotta climb some first right?
Winter here's starting to really get cold. We had it nice until late last week when we saw some minus double digits (degrees celcius- our 0 is 32 F). About an inch to a foot of snow depending on where you are. Good thing the cars got the winters on.
Get money, get paid.

She got tired of just reading what I was posting here. I think Frank was the real draw, lol!!! I mentioned the idea of working with him in KC and she got all excited. I had already told her about the delicious smoked tenderloin sandwich I enjoyed in '02 at The Majestic when I was there with the jet.
Trust me, once she starts talking.....
...well, let me warn you. You are probably going to see a post about CPR.
She's a nurse.
