Snowed twice this week. They closed I-70 around Aspen. So yeah.

(WTF you talkin about Amanda? Let's see YOU try to turn a wrench when it's that cold! :p )

Seriously, 35 isn't that bad for working on cars. Colder sucks because then if you aren't careful your skin gets stuck to stuff. :frown:

Did I mention I am looking forward to moving away from the cold and back to the unnatural warmth of Southern California? :D

I stuck a rebuilt engine in a '67 Mustang once when it was snowing. My engine hoist wouldn't fit into the garage, so we had to roll the car into the driveway. That was not a lot of fun.

Well, after 3 hours it went in. Then I had to quickly go run errands. One small leak at the relief line. (This is a stupid design. WTF was Volvo thinking?)

Yeah, 35 is not that bad with warm clothes and no wind. I've washed my car before when it was just under freezing and there was a wind. That was cold - I couldn't feel my hands by the time I was done.
