The Polar Express ~

The A/Bus is loaded with the booty from Santa's sack and the skies have cleared after overnight heavy rains. It's a sunny, breezy 45F here but will drop to abt 24F hereabouts tonite; the A/Bus will soon be rolling westbound into a midwestern arctic blast that will be short-lived but intense.

How intense? Well, my working plan is to overnite in a WalMart in Bristol where the low is scheduled to be 12F with strong winds. I've piled on some sleeping bags for The RewCor and drained the exterior water lines. I'll add some extra anti-gel to the fuel before shutting down for the night, and leave the genset running on General Principles.

I'm rested and ready; another thing or two and I'll be ready to roll. Diesels ho! Or make that Ho Ho Ho!
